Lochie ARMOUR
« on: Tuesday 10 May 16 12:07 BST (UK) »
Andrew  b. 11 Jul 1786  c. 23 Jul 1786  Markinch, Fife
David SWAN & Margaret GROUNDIESTON

Probably not first son.

1861
Registration Number: 447
Registration district: Markinch
Civil Parish: Markinch

Locky Swan  Head F 83  Annuitant  Abbotshall Fife

Thomas  b. 20 Dec 1792  Abbotshall, Fife

I'm down to zero credits so viewing records on SP will have to wait a few months.

2x Loch/Lochie ? Or a death for Thomas senior and a 'marriage' to Andrew SWAN that's not in index?

Children of Andrew & Lochie? to give a rough idea of when they might have married.

Thanks,

Fred

It's possible that Andrew Swan and Lochie Armour were never married although lived as such.

Checked their son Andrews baptism in 1811 on SP and whilst other entries show 'lawful' child of 'whoever' and his wife 'whoever and it looks as if his parents were not married.

Described as: Andrew Swan, natural son of Andrew Swan and Lochie Armour.

Also looked at the baptism of Thomas Henderson in 1792.   I don't think parents were married here either - again, other entries state 'lawful' of .... Thomas is just 'son of'.

This explains why you cannot find the 2 marriages and looks like these were probably Lochie's only 2 children.

Thanks very much Annette.

That gives me a few things to add to my tree.

It looks as though it's not possible to confirm if there is only one Lochie. Uncommon name so can say probably one.

bride's name: Dowie
