Scotland / Re: James Brownlee birth date and where
« on: Monday 23 April 12 02:44 BST (UK)  »
Thank you, Skoosh and sancti, for your quick replies.  :D Thank you for the warm welcome.
 
Unfortunately, I do not know where to look for the old parish registers. Are these registers listed on this website?

Yes, these are the lairds of torfoot families.

james brownlee's (married to jane lemen) parents are:

archibald brownlee, born ca 1710 in lanarkshire scotland, died 1788 in canton township, washington county, pennsylvania, usa

and agnes margaret hamilton, born 15 aug 1713 in strathaven scotland, died 1785 in washington county pennsylvania usa.

archibald and agnes margaret were married 18 may 1732 in strathaven scotland.

Scotland / James Brownlee birth date and where

I found your link to rootschat.com by searching brownlee and torfoot lanarkshire scotland.
However, the topic I was interested in was already closed.  :'( So happy I found your site. :)

I, too, have brownlees, even a brownlee that married another brownlee!  :o
I am looking for the actual birth date of James Brownlee that married Jane Leman and he was a patriot in the american revolution. Also, another James Brownlee that married Jean Rankin was also a patriot in the american revolution.

The daughters of the american revolution in usa has the birth date for the James married to Jane Leman as 1-4-1745 in Lanarkshire Scotland and the James married to Jean Rankin as 1745 Torfoot Scotland. As I understand it, Torfoot is a farm near Lanarkshire Scotland.  Could anyone verify Torfoot and Lanarkshire and Scotland? I could be way off base...

Could anyone help me? Thank you so much for your time.
