Hi,
I am looking for information on James Baillie married to Agnes Spalding.
What I have found so far:
1. James Baillie (born about 1819, where?; d. 11 May 1894 in Kirkliston, West Lothian, Scotland) married Agnes Spalding (born about 1819, where?; d. 1896 in Kirkliston, West Lothian, Scotland) on 15 May 1842 in Kirkliston, West Lothian, Scotland.
2. According to http://dustydocs.com.au/link/180/41929/145744/monumental-inscriptions-gravestone-photographic-resource.html -
James Baillie aged 75 b. 1819 d.1894 first name on monument
Agnes Spalding Baillie aged 77 b. 1819 d.1896 wife of James Baillie
Location of the grave monument - Municipal Cemetery, Kirkliston, West Lothian, Scotland
3. They had 6 children, all born in Kirkliston, West Lothian, Scotland -
a. Eliza Baillie b. 28 Jan 1843; d. abt 1908. Married John Thomas Plews (b. abt 1844 Dalkeith, Midlothian, Scotland; d. 28 Sep 1928 in Queensbury House, Cannongate, Edinburgh, Scotland) on 01 Jun 1866 in Kirkliston, West Lothian, Scotland. They went on to have about 10 children. My family link is through the PLEWS side.

I would love to find further information on this family James and Agnes origins, occupations, their parents and any of their siblings and their own 6 children and their families.
Thanking you in advance.

Hi Sandi ,
The death certificates for James and Agnes should name their parents(depending on the knowledge of the informant).
http://www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk/
Census information should give further clues to birthplaces , occupations , etc.

Sandi, just for info. Don't recognise dustydocs site, but I think the info source may be from here www.gravestonephotos.com/public/gravedetails.php?available=yes&fullname=Agnes%20Spalding%20Baillie&grave=49689&personid=100439&db=49689&scrwidth=1600
You can contact them direct and they offer to send an email with photo of stone for free (the source of these photos are voluntary contributions that people have submitted).
Kirkliston must have been well documented. James Bailie' details also show here www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GSln=Baillie&GSiman=1&GSst=4698&GRid=70445706& Maybe same person has distributed their research.
