Hi
I am looking for any information about William Hay born 1804ish at Hutton, Dumfrieshire. He is my GGG Grandfather. I have found him on the 1841, 51, 61,& 71 Census living at Hart Manor, his occupation was stated as Surgeon who qualified in Glasgow. I also have a copy of his will so I know he died 6/6/1879. I am looking for any records which will give me his parents, and also any burial records. His wife was a Margaret Wightman which I got from the marriage certificate of his daughter Elizabeth Hay (my GG Grandmother) I would really appreciate any help at all.
I am also interested in the history of Hart Manor, where he was living. I have found a hotel on the web and wonder if this is the same building anybody know anything about it.
Thank You
I used the link for the hutton & corrie cemetery posted on this site and there are 10 graves listed under the name of Hay, wondering if anybody could look these up for me, I would be very grateful if any one can.
Also found more info on the pilot search on familysearch site and this is what I found
David Hay and Jannet Mundel Baptisms Hutton and Corrie
Mally 13/8/1799
John 10/2/1801
Elizabeth 24/6/1802
William 21/1/1804 could be the William I am looking for as he states his birth place as Hutton and Corrie Eskdalemuir
Charles 1/6/1806
David 4/11/1807
Would love to know if these are the parents of William and any info would be regarding this lot would be most appreciated.
I have done searches on Scotlands Peoples website for William and Margaret Wightman's marriage but get nothing, so I have no way of knowing if these are his parents.
Thanks to DGFHS I have now confirmed that David Hay and Jannet Mundell are William's parents, they gave me info from the MI's and much more info I would recommend joining this society as they are really helpful. Still looking for info on Harts Manor. Thanks to Fiona for the info regarding scottish BDM's
