Dumfriesshire / Esther Green born 1845 Lochmaben
« on: Tuesday 08 August 17 10:14 BST (UK)  »
Hi Everyone
Found Easter Green, born about 1845 in Lochmaben, father John Green, mother Agnes Hunter, in the 1851 Census, as Easter Green. Found her in 1861 census living at Mouswald with William Bell and family as Esther/Ester Green. She was a dairymaid on their farm. After that she is meant to be back in Lochmaben in 1871 but can't seem to find her.Help!!! She is sister to my 2x great grandfather. Any other information about her would be gratefully received. Thanks in advance.

Australia / Green Family around Melbourne area
« on: Tuesday 08 August 17 10:02 BST (UK)  »
Hi Everyone
Looking for David Green (born 1825, Lochmaben, Scotland, died Fitzroy, Victoria in 1897) who went to Australia before 1860. His elder son, Joseph Green was born around 1860 and died in Fitzroy, Victoria in 1920. David Green married Sarah Ann Saunders in Castlemaine in 1861.Younger son Robert was born there in 1862. Not sure if Sarah was mother to both boys but they both predeceased her as her will names her grandchildren as beneficiaries. At the time of David Greens death(1897) his son Robert was living in Townsville, Queensland and working  as a builder.
Any information about this family would be much appreciated. Thank you in advance.

Hello
Looking for information about a stationmaster at Mauchline by the surname McInnes. This is all the information I have at the moment but would be grateful for any information as I have just started on this branch of the tree. He had a son William who lived in Dumfries for many years. It is said he married for the second time and had William when he was 62!
Thanks

Hi everyone,
I am interested in the history of this particular house and wondered if there were any Rootschatters out there that had information about this particular property. Will try to get into the Ewart this week to see what I can find.
Thanks

Banffshire / James Robertson and Mary Russell Bowie
« on: Wednesday 07 March 12 12:14 GMT (UK)  »
Hi

I am trying to get information on this couple. James Robertson was born in Channelkirk, Berwickshire in 1874 and was the son of James Robertson and Agnes Anderson. He is living at 158 Leith Walk, Leith in the 1901 census and a barman. Later that year he marries Mary Russell Bowie in Edinburgh, father ? Bowie and mother Mary Russell. In the Berwickshire news and General Advertiser it says she was formerly of Banff? I have seen a copy of their marriage certificate and it is undecipherable.
I would like to know what happened to them after 1901.

Any help much appreciated.

Thanks
Lesley

Hello
Wonder if any Rootschatters can help me find Mary Jane Robertson (b 1871 Channelkirk, Berwickshire, Scotland) and married James Whitfield (b 1878 Applegarth, Dumfriesshire, Scotland) in 1908 in Edinburgh. They may have emigrated to New Zealand.
Any information gratefully received
Thanks
Lesley
