Lanarkshire / Robert Sorbie b 1869
« on: Saturday 11 December 10 19:36 GMT (UK)  »
Looking for information on Robert Sorbie, born 05/12/1869 in Stonehouse to James Sorbie and Helen Hamilton. He appears with the family in the 1871 and 1881 census but then disappears. The family story is that he argued with his family and went to Australia, but can't find any record.
Any help greatly appreciated.

Hi
Looking for information on the family of Lillias Paterson who married John Hamilton in Avondale, 07/11/1835.

In the 1841 Census, they are shown living in Avondale:
John Hamilton b 1816, Lanarkshire Cotton HLW
Lilias Hamilton b 1815, Lanarkshire
Janet Hamilton b 1835, Lanarkshire
Marion Hamilton b 1837, Lanarkshire
Also in the household are:
David Paterson b 1766, Lanarkshire
Margaret Paterson b 1811, Lanarkshire
Thomas Barrie b 1840, Lanarkshire

In SP, there is a death record for Lilley Paterson spouse of John Hamilton, Weaver, 24/01/1846 in Avondale.

In SP and IGI. there is a Lillias Paterson born to Robert Paterson and Lillias Hamilton in Stonehouse on 04/12/1814 and another Lillias born to Robert Paterson and Lillias Hamilton in Stonehouse on 01/09/1820.

Any help to confirm her birth and family would be much appreciated.

Hi Monica

Thanks for a quick response

Agnes died in 1872 in Kingseat, Dunfermline, with son James being informant. Her parents are given as William Wilson and Agnes Mackie. The only marriage I can find is David Wilson & Agnes Mackie, Torryburn / Dunfermline, 1772, and Agnes born to them 1788.

Fife / Robert Beveridge & Agnes Wilson
« on: Sunday 23 May 10 21:13 BST (UK)  »
I realise much has been written about the Beveridges, including this Robert.
I know that they married on 04/12/1806 in Dunfermline and had the following children, all born in Dunfermline:
Agnes born 28/02/1808
William born 28/02/1808
Janet born 13/05/1810
David born 12/07/1812
Robert born 19/09/1813
Agnes born 06/08/1815
William born 27/07/1817
Thomas born 02/08/1822
George born 15/10/1824
James Rolland born 23/06/1827
Margaret born 01/01/1830
Catherine born c 1834
Using the naming pattern leads me to Robert's parents being William Beveridge and Janet Brown; and Agnes's parents being David Wilson and Agnes Mackie.
This ties up with the majority of other trees available for viewing and IGI.
However, I was wondering if anyone could explain where the Rolland connection came from and when Robert died. Nearly all the trees say 1842 but according to the 1841 Census, Agnes Wilson was living with David, Thomas, James, Margaret and Catherine in Townhill, Dunfermline - no Robert. There are several possible deaths for Robert Beveridge, Miner, in the period 1833 to 1841 in Dunfermline.
Any help in pointing me in the right direction would be appreciated.

Hi Bob,
Thanks for that info on George McKenzie, as the only suitable marriage between a George McKenzie and a Janet Fraser was 25/09/1797 in Inverkeithing.

Hi Audrey

Many thanks for the birth dates. Immediately after I posted, I had another go at FreeCen, and I think I found them at Kaimend Farm, Cavers. So back to AP for their death regs.

Thanks

Charlie
