Hi again,
Beckey... these Dicksons are my ancestors!!! The Skaithmuir Dicksons that is... they immigrated to Canada.... I don't know how they got there from here... I just know they ended up on the 1851 Census, and possibly on the 1842 one, which hasn't been proofread yet, so it's not a certainty. Can you share any more information on them? I've tried so hard to find a ship list and family of theirs but I can't. I do know that Cathrine's maiden name was Warden. Any information you could share with me would be greatly appreciated.
Dicksons in Coldstream, 1841.
Skaithmuir.
James Dickson M 25 Ag.Lab Bew.
Catherine F 25
Thomas M 4
Robert M 2
Thomas M 70 Ag.Lab.
Christian F 65
Margaret F 30.

Hi Becky.... The Dickson list you posted is my ancestors... James, Cathrine...etc. They ended up settling in Canada. They are definitley on the 1851 Census and possibly on the 1842 census which hasn't been proofread yet to be 100% certain of it. Can you share any more information on them. I've tried so hard to find them on a shipping list to know avail.. to determine their arrival date. Do you have any thing else you can share? Thanks ever so much.
