Clackmannanshire / Re: Andrew BROWN and Agnes Bonar 1792/3 Clackmannan
« on: Tuesday 23 November 21 15:23 GMT (UK)  »
Sorry typing mistake. They married in 1846 in Clackmannan ( not 1856) . First daughter is Agnes born 1847 who married a Michael McQueeney born 1846 in Ireland and died c 1910.

Hi I can confirm that Agnes Brown born c 1826 married James Izatt 5 Oct 1856 in Clackmannan. Her mother was Agnes Bonar 1792-1881. I have confirmed DNA matches to Agnes Brown through two of her daughters Janet Izatt c 1850 and Isabella Izatt c 1856. Hope this helps. I'm not sure about your mention of wikitree.

Hi MonicaL

Thanks for the link to the possible birth of Andrew Brown (Broun) I will look at this. Looks promising.

Yes, Agnes Bonar used Ann too. Her mother was Euphemia (Euphan) Logan. I have been able to work back from Agnes Bonar and have found some DNA links to her family.  :D

Thank you for your time.

Hi Sprinkles
I am still looking for my extended Brown family. With not much luck. If Andrew Brown was born in Fife, he may not have been, there are a number of possible parents for him. His death certificate gives no more new information. Died 1839 in Clackmannanshire. Age not given or parents names. Using the tradition of Scottish naming patterns his father may have been Robert or David and his mother may have been Agnes or Mary. Still searching.

Moray (Elginshire) / Lewis Grant married the widow of John Campbell (Margaret) 1786 Edinburgh
« on: Sunday 11 September 16 16:26 BST (UK)  »
I am trying to trace my Grant family roots back to the Strathspey area and have established that Lewis Grant born 1790 in Edinburgh had parents called Lewis Grant and Margaret. The following is a transcription of his parents marriage lines (from Scotland's People)

Can anyone help me understand the marriage lines:

"Marriages in 1786 20th January

Grant Lewies (Lewis) Pensioner and Mgt Grant, widow of John Campbell, late soldier of the 48th (or could be 78th) Regiment of Foot, gave up their names for Proclamation of Bans Matrimonial. "

Question: Does this mean that Lewis Grant was a pensioned off soldier??

How would I find out which regiment he was in?

Is there any way to determine the maiden name of Margaret his wife?

Thank you

I'm sorry. After posting my request I found out that I had the wrong William.
My William's parents were Duncan and Mary but yours was Elizabeth.
My search continues.
Sincere apologies.  :'(

I am also researching William Kennedy who died in Perth on 23/10/1918.
He was my great great grand uncle. Does anyone know anything about his brother Alexander Kennedy who was born in December 1889 in Crieff?
I may have found him in the Army Service Corps 10th battery? Also there is another brother called Donald Kennedy born in July 1886.

Any assistance would be very welcome.
Thank you  ;)

Thanks very much for the info.
I had narrowed his death down to before 1841 so 1839 looks correct.
I'll look at SP and see what I find.
Thanks again.
