James Moffatt
« on: Monday 01 August 05 19:48 BST (UK) »
I am looking for information on James Moffatt born Annan in 1854. He married first to Martha Guthrie born Bewcastle Cumberland  in 1855 then second to Jane born Sebergham Cumberland in 1855. I can't find a record of his birth. Can anyone look him up on the 1871 census? He lived in Brampton in Cumberland by 1878.

There was a history of the Moffat family by the late Francis Moffat of that Ilk in 1987 by Phillimore.  There is also a substantial Clan Moffat organisation which had its annual meeting in August in Moffat, with people coming over from America.

As tou suggested earlier, not an easy one to untangle.

It is some time since I looked at the family history but would of course be interested to hear what you have found out  and to pass on any information which may be of help to you.
