« on: Tuesday 29 March 05 22:27 BST (UK) »
i am posting another request on this person as i have just got different info on her from another source who i believe is more accurate than the previous info i have.
i am after birth , marriage records for Sarah Calandar McDaul[McDawl] Diamond who was born around 1814 in Stranraer, Wigtownshire, Scotland to parents John & Margaret Diamond.
any info on her &/or parents gratefully received.
i would also be grateful if someone could see if she actually married a person with surname Coleman before she left scotland for england because some papers show coleman as part of her surname[Coleman-Diamond]. i know she married richard russell in london in 1843 so it would have been earlier than this
thanks all for your time

Hi again Vickie,

I had another look for you at LDS an found following marriage
John DIAMOND & margaret HENDERSON m May 1802 Portpatrick, Wigtown
Batch no: M118964 (extracted from parish records)

Birth Margaret Henderson 5th Oct 1774 Stoneykirk, Wigtown
Parents John Henderson Elizabeth Murdoch
This information was submitted by a member and not extracted form official documents, so as before mentioned, unreliable.

Did you not have any luck with Scotlands people website? You should be able to print off a marriage cert of her parents and be able to work from that. 
Good Luck

my info says sarah's mother was margaret mcdaul[mcdawl] & this is where sarah gets one of her middle names fron so i don't believe this is the correct marriage unless margaret's middle name was mcdaul as well. i will certainly try the scotland site but if it is a pay to view site then it makes it hard for me as i live in NSW Australia and it is difficult to send small amounts of money overseas. Again i thank you for your time and i will keep looking for sarsh until i find her. she has to be some where

Hi Vickie,

One other thing that might help you, Are you sure the name is McDawl/McDaul. It could possibly be McDowall. I have never heard if any of the others.

I hope you manage to find Sarah & family. I understand how frustrating it is. I have an ancestor from Wigtown who seems to have appeared from nowhere at the moment! :)

Good Luck
Regards

Vickie, the OPR entry for John Diamond and Margaret Henderson is

1 01/05/1802 DIAMOND JOHN MARGARET HENDERSON/FR448 M PORTPATRICK 896/00 0002

Children of the above ....?

17/04/1807 DIAMOND JOHN JOHN DIAMOND/MARGARET HENDERSON FR114 M LESWALT 891/00 0001

17/04/1809 DIAMOND MARGARET JOHN DIAMOND/MARGARET HENDERSON FR122 F LESWALT 891/00 0001

There are no Sarah or S Diamonds shown in the OPR at all, births or marriages.
