Hello Tom,
Your William Waugh is part of my larger Waugh family. My great grandfather who went to Canada was a first cousin. I have some material on this family.

Hi
I have a Jane/Jean Waugh born 1792, Closeburn, Dumfries (about 10 miles from Kirkmahoe). She was my gggxgrandmother. Of course the family name has changed many times since then, but I do have a tree for her showing siblings, parents etc (no documentary evidence other than IGI as the connection is quite remote). Willing to share if you like.
Regards

Hi,
Whom did she marry? Did she stay in Closeburn?
Joanna
-
She married James Hamilton around 1816. They seem to have stayed around Closeburn/Dunscore area. Some of the info I have came from a Hamilton researcher. I cannot find a record of their marriage or children's births. However, their daughter (my ggxgrandmother), Janet Hamilton's, death cert. names them as her parents and census gives her place of birth as Closeburn around 1827. Jane Waugh died at, or shortly after Janet's birth (1827). In 1841 James and his new wife, Margaret were farming at a place called Cample Bridge, Closeburn. Jane Waugh's parents were John Waugh and Jean Scott (IGI).

HI,
Thanks for the information.
I have some of your names in some research I have. John waugh was born about 1762 . He was associated with Croalchapel in Closeburn and he died in 1827 at Longbank in Dunscore. He is named in the Service of Heirs and is buried in Closeburn Churchyard. Jean scott was from Durrisdeer (Closeburn OPR). John Waugh and Jean Scott had at least 10 children. From the Closeburn OPR:
Marrion b 1789
Grizle b 1790
Jean b 1792
Isobel b 1794
Marrion b 1796
Mary b 1798
Janet b 1800
John b 1802
James b 1804
Agnes b 1806.
In my line of Waughs, I can only go back to William Waugh (1746 to 1808). He married Mary Hiddleston.They lived in Kirkmahoe and were associated with Forestrig. They are buried in Old Dunscore Cemetery. The Kirkmahoe OPRs have large gaps in them so I haven't been able to find records for this family. But I do know all the 3 sons (Robert, John, William) of William are accounted for so any connection if any to your Waughs would be before 1746. (See tree url previous message).

Hi
Yes, that's the family. I have looked at your tree but cannot make any obvious connection. However, I will keep you in mind.
All the best.

Hello Sarnia,
How are you related?
I have the certificates and census but am very much interested in any photographs.

I have a connection with the Waugh family and Shearer on another side of the family. I have a bit on the Shearer Family as that was my Mother in-laws Family. So I am interested in William. Maxwell Waugh married Isabella Lees and they helped to bring up Isabella Agnes Jane Lees she was illegitimate born at Sandbed. She, took the name Waugh. Isabella Waugh was sister to Jane, Isabella, mother. When Maxwell died Isabella his wife was with Isabella her niece. My Isabella married William Mckie and Isabella Waugh was living with them in Kirkbean on a farm Their first child was called Maxwell.
Can you tell me if Maxwell and Isabell had any family of their own?
Kind Regard

Hi Karen,
As far as I can tell Maxwell Waugh and wife Isabella did not have any children of their own. I don't see any in the register of births. The marriage registration of Maxwell Waugh shows his wife Isabella to have the maiden name of Kirkpatrick. Her father was Robert Kirkpatrick, blacksmith, and mother was Agnes Morrin. They were both deceased at the time of the marriage in 1865.
The birth registration for Isabella Agnes Jane Lees in 1874 names her mother as Jane Allan Lees. NO father is named at that time. By 1900 at the time of her marriage to WIlliam McKie she was using the surname Waugh.
There is a marriage record in 1881 for a Jane Allan age 24 marrying a James Coupland . Jane' s mother is named as AGnes Kirkpatrick (then married to David Blaycock). Jane Allan's reputed father was John Lees. Jane Allan was living at Sandbed of Dalswinton. This was the home of Isabella Waugh, wife of Maxwell.
If you look back at the census, Agnes Kirkpatrick was the sister of Isabella (Kirkpatrick) Waugh.
SO it looks like Isabella Agnes Jane Lees is the great niece of Isabella Kirkpatrick Waugh.
What is strange though is that Jane Allan was using the surname ALLAN. I can't figure that one out. There was another Kirkpatrick sister Jane. She married Andrew Allan in 1855 and they moved to Victoria Australia in Dec 1856.
Regards
Joanna Waugh

Mary's father was William Waugh (1817-1899). His parents were William Waugh (1786-1862) and Mary Cherry. This William was the older brother of my gg grandfather John Waugh(b. 1789-d. 1857 in Canada) SO she was my John Waugh's great niece. Mary and my grandfather would be 2nd cousins. I am 4th cousin to your Mary Waugh SHearer Kirkaldie, I think.
Mary Waugh Shearer had a brother William Waugh b 1844 in Kirkmahoe. I haven't been able to find any record of him past 1861 census. DO you know what happened to him?
