Hugh Baillie information

[YO8]

I am trying to find a birth record for Hugh Baillie, according to the information I have he was born in Stoneykirk around 1827. The earliest record I have is the 1841 census on a farm at Carringarosh with Margaret Tally aged 42 and Margaret Sproat aged 20. By 1861 he was in Dailly in Ayrshire again on a farm where he met his wife and they married in 1862. They had 9 children and he died in Dailly in 1882. Any help would be appreciated

Hi there 

Any details on his parents' names from either his marriage or death registrations?

His death cert is on a family tree on Anc - Lists him as the illegitimate son of John Baillie - Farm Labourer and Margaret Rowney - Domestic Servant

On his death certificate it is stated his father was John Baillie farm servant deceased and his mother Margaret Rooney ? deceased although I have seen it as Rollie on another document, I assume this was the pronunciation by the person collecting the information. Again I have been unable to find either of them anywhere

Kay, I have seen that, my understanding is that it is his wife that was illegitimate. Could well be it is my family tree you have seen

[Kay99]

I think it could well be your tree - the illegitimacy could well refer to Hugh   Do you mind if I post a small extract to get the view of others?? You are probably right but I haven't seen it written like that before

[YO8]

Hi Kay, No problem the tree is public on Anc for the same reason

[Kay99]

You are probably right -but just in case - I can't see a baptism for Hugh at the moment

I would say that the refence to illegitimate on his death cert refers to him only, not his wife.
