Fife / Jane Good
« on: Monday 28 December 09 20:09 GMT (UK)  »
Does anyone have any knowledge of Jane Good who married James or possibly David Nellies about 1820. The marriage could have taken place in Dunfermline, Inverkeithing, Dalgetty area.
Nothing shows up on SP OPR marriages or 1841 census.

thanks

Fife / Re: David Beveridge
« on: Friday 25 December 09 20:16 GMT (UK)  »
Thanks Beans and Dod
I found David Beveridge on SP born to William Beveridge and Janet Brown at Torryburn on 15/02/1776. Lovely spelling on original.
Looking at the rest of William and Janet's family, and using the Scottish Family Name Theory, I assume that William's parents are David Belfrage/Bellfrage/Beveridge and Agnes Gib of Auchterderran and Dunfermline, unless someone can tell me otherwise.

Which takes me to your Re: William Beveridge discussion of earlier this year.

thanks

Fife / David Beveridge
« on: Friday 11 December 09 19:32 GMT (UK)  »
In my tree, I have a David Beveridge, born 06/05/1810 in Inveresk and Musselburgh to David Beveridge and Janet Penman.
David and Janet had at least seven sons according to SP:
        William b 1803 Dunfermline
        William b 1808 Inveresk and Musselburgh
        David b 1810 Inveresk and Musselburgh
        Thomas b 1812 Inveresk and Musselburgh
        Robert b 1813 Inveresk and Musselburgh
        Duncan b 1817 Inveresk and Musselburgh
        Peter b 1823 Dunfermline

On IGI various dates and places are given for David's birth, including Torryburn 1777, Dunfermline, and Inveresk.
On Sp there is a David Beveridge born to William Beveridge and Christian McConnachie at Torryburn on 02/03/1777. However, there is David Beveridge son of William Beveridge dying at Torryburn in 1780.
Does anyone have any info to confirm this one way or the other and get me out of the mire?

Thanks

Fife / Re: Another Simpson request!
« on: Thursday 26 November 09 13:53 GMT (UK)  »
Some additional info:
IGI has an Andrew Simpson born in Dunfermline to Andrew Simson and Ann Seath or Leath 24/04/1821
and
Andrew Simpson born in Dunfermline to Andrew Simspn and Emmilia Melvile 25/12/1821.

The Simpson family in the Census of 1841 for Coatbridge has Andrew Simpson, head Ann, wife, and includes Andrew, son, aged 20.

Fife / Another Simpson request! Completed
« on: Tuesday 24 November 09 19:50 GMT (UK)  »
I'm looking for further info on Andrew Simpson, possibly born in Dunfermline in c1820.
What I have so far is:
1851 Census  Dunfermline, Fife
          Andrew Simpson 29 born Dunfermline
          Sarah                  29 born Ayr
          Elizabeth               9 born Airdrie
          Jeanie                   5 born Dunfermline
          Andrew                 2 born Oakley
          Mary                      0 born Dunfermline

1861 Census Durham
          Andrew Simpson 40 born Scotland
          Sarah                  40 born Scotland
          Elizabeth             19 born Scotland
          Georgina             15 born Scotland
          Andrew                13 born Scotland
          Mary                     11 born Scotland
          Annie                      8 born Scotland
          John                       5 born England
          Sarah                     2 born England

In 1871 they were in Bradford
          Andrew Simpson 49 born Scotland
          Sarah                  50 born Scotland
          Andrew                22 born Scotland
          Annie                    18 born Scotland
          John                      14 born Durham
          Sarah                    11 born Durham
          Elizabeth  ?              8 born Durham
          Grace                     5m born Yorkshire

In 1881 they are back in Beath with some of their grandchildren

Elizabeth married Andrew Brooksbank and on her death reg it gives her mothers name as Sarah McKane.
There is a Sarah Mackean born in Ayrshire 28/02/1821 and a notice of marriage between Andrew Simpson and Sarah McKean in Coatbridge on 17/10/1840. This states that they were both of that Parish. There is an Andrew Simpson of the right age in the 1841 census for Coatbridge, but nothing to tie him to Dunfermline.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
