Joseph Ramsden b 1864 from York married Margaret Nesbit Turnbull in 1885 in Berwick
he was in the Kings Own Scottish Borderer's known as the KOSB's
Margaret was the youngest daughter of Andrew Farmer Turnbull and Jane Stuart Davidson
they lived in Eastern Lane Berwick
All Margaret and Josephs children were born in Berwick what I am looking for are two sons who emigrated to America
Andrew Farmer Ramsden b 1887 and Henry D ( I think this could be Davidson ) Ramsden b 1886
others in their family were Joseph Ramsden jun b 1889 and Jane Stuart Ramsden b 1890 . I have nothing on these two children either I do know in one of the census Jane Stuart Turnbull is living with them
Regards

Hi,
When did Andrew Farmer Ramsden emigrate to America?
In 1945 & 1947 there is an Andrew Farmer Ramsden living at 86 Hurlock Street, Islington.

Just found the death of the Andrew Farmer Ramsden who was living in Islington -
Andrew Farmer Ramsden
Birth Date - 1 Oct 1919
Registration Date - Nov 1989
Registration district - Islington
Vol 13 Page 1684
So it would appear that the above man is not who you are researching as his birth date is no correct.

There's an Andrew Farmer Ramsden, birth registered in the December quarter of 1886 (not 1887) in Berwick, and another one registered in Glasgow St Rollox in 1919.
The second one must be the Andrew F Ramsden who married Bessie McKenna in Islington in 1944.
Andrew Ramsden, aged 40, Scottish, was an assistant steward aboard the Cameronia which sailed from Glasgow for New York on 17 May 1926.
He doesn't come up in the 1930 or 1940 US census.
SP lists a marine death of Andrew Ramsden, aged 42, in 1926. Might be worth a look?
You say they were in a census with Jane Stuart Turnbull. Which censuses have you found them in?

Thank you Forfarian and JJen for your reply
I will have to search as you say in Scotlandspeople for Andrew
I did look at FreeBMD and I did pick him up in Ipswich but was told he had emigrated to America
So I did a search in famlysearch with no luck
Thank you once again

I think Henry is Henry Stuart Ramsden . He is Henry S Ramsden on 1891 census and there is a birth registration for Henry Stuart Ramsden , mmn Turnbull , S Q 1885 Berwick 10b 406.
