My gg grandmother, Janet Mounsey born 1804 was the niece of Joan mounsey.  You mention a William mounsey marrying a Janet Patterson but it was a Thomas Mounsey who married Janet Patterson probably in the 1680's.  William Mounsey was actually Thomas and Janet's son.  Thomas married for the second time to mary Steel and Dr James Mounsey was their son.   Doctor Rogerson and James were cousins. Alexander Mounsey was the grandson of Thomas and Janet.  Janet Paterson was the sister of Sir William Paterson connected to the Bank of England

Regarding the Ontario connection, my Janet Mounsey lived in Sutton Ontario Canada, two brothers Alexander and Thomas lived in Vaughan township and sister Elizabeth Mounsey married to John johnstone Rogerson lived in Guelph area.

Thanks John you have filled in the gap I was trying to identify. Janet Mounsey was my ggggrandmother on my mothers side . I had obtained a copy of her birth certificate and details of her marriage and burial but could not tie this in with the earlier generations. Thanks again!!!

Thanks for your note.  I want to confirm that the janet Mounsey who you refer to as ggg grandmother is the same janet Mounsey who was my gg grandmother born 1804 in tinwald Dumfriesshire.  She married Edward Lorimer or Latimer or sometimes referred to Edward Lotimer.  The couple resided in Sutton Ontario Canada.  This Janet Latimer's parents were James Mounsey and jean White.  There was another Janet Mounsey born in 1764  whose parents were Alexander Mounsey and Jane or Jean Rogerson.   That Janet Mounsey married Samuel Rogerson in 1787.  There was a lot of Rogerson and Mounsey inter marriages.  Which Janet Mounsey is your direct ancestor?

It looks very much that we are cousins. How do you connect with Janet Mounsey?  My great grandmother Janet Latimer daughter of Edward Latimer and Janet Mounsey born in 1836 married Robert Nicol in Sutton inabt 1858.  My grandfather John Nicol was born in 1873 and died in 1962 in Toronto.

I hope that I hear from you

Sorry I have got this wrong. My ggggrandfather was Joseph Hamilton (1770-1839). He  married  Joan Mounsey (1767-1856)  in 1792. Her parent were Alexander Mounsey and Jane Mounsey ( Rogerson) . Can confirm this information is correct as I have checked with Death Certificate- Joan Mounsey and Memorial Inscription at Wamphray churchyard where Joan Hamilton ( Mounsey ) is buried

New to this . Just registered and saw some requests re the Mounsey family from Dumfriesshire. I have  an old copy of a family tree in my possession and thought perhaps it might be help full in filling in some blanks in others family tree.
