Hi Ravelin

I and my wife live in Plymouth and either this Saturday or on Saturday 10th October we will be going to our Central Library and will try and find the info for you

kind regards
Ian and Sammie

Hi me again

I was also hoping somebody out their with access to parish records may be able to find first, the birth of my Barbara Miller, I know she married George Herd and he as born in 1702 in Leslie, Fife. And that she had her first child in 1728 also in Leslie. I know this does not mean she was also born in that village and may well have been born in a village near by.

I appreciate this is fairly vague and I am clutching at straws but if anyone can help it would be well appreciated.

Then there is also the matter of her death, as her last child was born in 1736 in Leslie, and then no more of her by then Barbara Herd. I do have a record of George Herd marrying a Janet Dalrumple in 1737 in Leslie and then having 4 children with her.

We have checked deaths in Leslie between 1736 and 1737 but none for her. Was wondering if there was any record around of her burial in this time period anywhere else

Woooooow I am going to check the links out now, note pad at the ready. I am decended from William 1760's so David Penman Herd. So we are related

I had info Williams dad was also William but you even have his father, amazing :D:D

I will write to you again once I have divulged all this info.

I am also in contact with other cousins decended from William 1760 Matthew Reay who is on this site MatthewR, also there is my 4th cousin Lois who lives near Liverpool and my 4th cousin Cathy Grey who lives out near San Francisco

She is currently on her way to the Herd family reunion in Scotland later this month and does a great deal of work on the Herd's

I had the pleasure of meeting her in person last Tuesday when she and her husband Dick came to meet me here in Plymouth

Speak soon your cousin Ian

Hi Ian here

Was hoping someone if some had access to the following parish records

I am after the parents of William Herd born 28 July 1760 in Kinglassie, Auchterderran Fifeshire

I have an inkling his father was also a William but from another source I have heard the name George mentioned.

If someone does have access to these parish records it would be so greatly appreciated and break down the next wall

Kindest regards
Ian
