Hi, I am looking for anyone researching the family of John Thom or Thomas and Sarah Robertson. It appears as though they married on 25 April 1851 Scone, Perth, Scotland (source Family Search). Children could be David bc 1867; Sarah bc 1871; John bc 1864, Helen bc 1858; James bc 1855 and maybe Mary bc 1854.

Hi

I was wondering if someone could do a BC Archives look-up for me at either the archives or an agency that holds their films.

I am looking for the death registrations for Williamson Westwood and Ann Gordon Westwood. I am particularly interested in the parents names of Williamson Westwood if they are listed on the registration. Details of their deaths are as follows:

Williamson Westwood died 31 March 1931. His age was 68. The event place was New Westminster. The registration/call number is 1931-09-460357. Roll/BC Archives Film number is b13143. GSU microfilm number is 1952654.

Ann Gordon Westwood died 6 September 1943. Her age was 84. The event place was Burnaby. The registration/call number is 1943-09-630859. Roll/BC Archives Film number is b13180. GSU microfilm number is 1953640.

The above information was obtained from doing a search of the archives web site. I live in Australia so would appreciate it if someone is able to do this look-up for me.

Thanking you in advance.

Hi to all

Looking for any information what-so-ever on Dalrymple Dawson, especially, when and where he was born and the names of his parents. He was the master of the convict ship 'Aurora' which left Portsmith in July 1833 and arrived in Australia in November 1833. One of the convicts on his ship formed a relationship with Isabell Bissett Dawson and I am wondering if there is a family connection between the two Dawson's. Isabell's parents were David Dawson and Mary Grainey and they came from the Fife area of Scotland.

Thanks for any help anyone can give me.

Hi to all

Not sure if I am posting in the correct place but here goes -

I found the following entry on Scotland BDM Exchange and am now looking for a grave/headstone that may give me an indication as to who his wife was and possibly children.

James Smails, son of Thomas Smails and Lillias McKay died 6 June 1863 Leith Hospital, Leith.

Now the Smails could also be Smail or Smealls and the McKay could be Mackie - these Scottish names get changed with every entry 

Hope I have some luck.

Hi

Just wondering if anyone else is researching the above family - Thomas' surname  could be spelt Smail or Smeaill or other variant and Lilias has also been recorded as Lillie Mackie.

They were married 7 May 1802 Aberdour, Fife, Scotland and their first three children were born in Dunfermline and fourth in Kirkcaldy.

I am particularly interested in Thomas' occupation as well as when and where he and Lillie died.

All I have been able to find so far is their children - James b. 1803; John b. 1804; Robert b. 1809 and Lilias b. 1816.

Any help greatly appreciated.
