Well Christine that is one of the most interesting things of that time I have ever read :)

Couldn't agree more - amazing! Wish there was something like this for the places my ancestors were.  ;D

Thank you very much for this information and I agree that was very interesting reading.  Can anyone confirm for me if the parents of Robert Ramsay are Ralph Ramsay born 1726 Rothbury and Elizabeth Hall born 1726.

Have found the Baptism 23 Sept 1780 for John Ramsay it states parents Robert Ramsay and Elisabeth Henderson.  Sorry if I am confusing you.  Elizabeth's Baptism just shows parents Robert Ramsey and Elisabeth Ramsey

John's baptism clearly states mother is Elisabeth HENDERSON, and says his parents were of Hartburn,  so I'm not sure that the Robert who married Elizabeth HALL in 1781 is necessarily the right Robert.  ???

I'm curious as to how you know the parents were born 1754 - do you have any other info about them?

As solidrock said in reply #1, if the 1841 census given is the correct John, then a possible marriage is with Rachael DONKIN in 1808.

Another child to the marriage of John and Rachel is probably Elizabeth Ramsey, born 16 Aug 1812 and bap 01 Nov 1812 at Newburn. (Father: John RAMSEY, Mother: Rachel DUNCAN)

Going by Robert's Baptism showing father as Ralph, Robert's brother John born 1753 - father Ralph and his sister Mary born 1756 showing father as Ralph

Sorry everyone, but I am totally confused here.

I can not find a marriage for Robert and Elisabeth Henderson, but can find a marriage for Robert & Elisabeth Hall in Nov 1781 Rothbury.  I went into my tree at Ancestry and typed in Elisabeth Hall as Robert's wife and the hints that came up show other trees as Elizabeth Henderson as Roberts wife.  The baptism hints for the children showed surname Henderson.
