Ayrshire / James BARBOUR-New Cumnock
« on: Monday 04 February 19 20:07 GMT (UK)  »
I have hit that brick wall and looking for help/advice.
Looking for my 2 x Grandad James Barbour born in Dundonld in 1862,he married an Eliza Ferguson in 1883 in New Cumnock,she died in 1896 and he remarried in 1897 to a Mary Hutchinson Brown born Glaston Ayrshire in 1867,where they had 4 children between 1898 and 1907 to go with the 6 from his previous marriage.
 I have them in the 1911 census still in New Cumnock but cant find anything about James,Mary or their 4 kids after that,obvious thinking is that they emigrated but struggling to find info with shipping lists etc.Wondering if anyone might be able to give help or advice please.

Morning All
Need help searching for my 2x G Uncle Thomas Paterson( 1886-?).Father was James(1850-1902),Mother was Grace Brown (1849-1915).He married Elizabeth Copland in Cambuslang 17/7/1915 and they had a daughter Elizabeth Pitceathly abt 1921.Now there is a potential that they might of emigrated to USA around 1927 as i have seen a death date for Mum Elizabeth in Virginia 1976?.Tried finding them on passenger lists but can't seem to find him,did he die before 1927 and his wife and daughter made a new life for themselves,i would be grateful for any information along with information about any Paterson's from Douglas and latterly New Cumnock.
Thank You
