Margaret Little
Birth abt 1670 in Scotland
Death 11 January 1740 in Langholm, Dumfries-shire, Scotland

Married to an Alexander Lochart (Lockhart) He was a Gardener in Langholm

I would like to know of any children they may have had as well as any other data. The Lockhart line is what I am most interested in but both side are wanted.

Many Thanks

Hi Kevin

I've had a look at Scotlandspeople and familysearch but have not found anything except

for a John Lochart born Dumfries 1656. The trouble is, as I'm sure you've found, the further

back we go the less records that have survived :)

Good luck

Hi Kevin
On scotlandspeople there are three children baptised to an Alexander Lockie in Westerkirk.
Alexander b 1707, John b 1709 and Margaret b 1714.
I haven't checked these, but the spelling of Lockie rather than Lockhart sounds quite likely, and Westerkirk is near Langholm.
cheers

Hi

Margaret Little is buried in Staplegordon Churchyard near Langholm. The headstone inscription is as follows : 
HERE LYES MARGARET LITTLE SPOUSE TO ALEXANDER LOCKHART GARDINER IN LANGHOLM WHO DIED 11TH JANUARY 1740 AGED 70 

Staplegordon Churchyard is near Potholm Farm, Langholm and not so far away from the Parish of Westerkirk.

 I hope this helps.

Lucy Gray, That is exactly who I am talking about. I am trying to find who her father and mother were as well as any siblings. Thank you so very much.
