William Pringle and Elizabeth Scott 1797
« on: Sunday 13 November 16 11:16 GMT (UK) »
Hi, I'm trying to find the birth of my ancestor William Pringle,who married Elizabeth Scott in Stow in 1797, and had their three children in 1797,1799 & 1802, James,Walter and John, all born in Stow. Would I assume that Elizabeth came from Stow, but William may have come from another village or town. I'm not sure how I can take my tree back any further as there are too many possibilities., too many William Pringles! Anybody got any ideas? Thanks.

Oops, my mistake. I posted in a hurry, sorry. Quite right, it is Margaret.
I don't usually make mistakes, how embarrassing. I've got so excited by progressing my tree back !

Thanks Rosie, I have the children's births, but haven't seen the Census returns for them. It's Williams birth I need. I've looked on Family Search, but there are too many of the same name. I'm stuck.

Yes I don't see any thing either the problem is if they died before 1855 it is very hard to get records ..Had a look at OPR but nothing jumping out ...The only possible census I have seen 1841 address Stow Village Midlothian
John Pringle born about 1806 out by a few years labourer
Margaret Pringle born about 1766 age 75
Janet Corbet age 70 ( a vagrant )

Doesn't look like I'm going to be related to the Laird! Just humble folk, as usual!
