Perthshire / Archibald McDiarmid, c.1828.
« on: Wednesday 13 May 09 05:41 BST (UK)  »
Have been researching my wife's ancestor, Archibald McDiarmid, apparently born in Perthshire about 1828. We believe his parents to be Archibald McDiarmid and Margaret Campbell. He came to Victoria, Australia on the ship "Bourneuf" in 1852. We have a fair amount of information of his life in Australia, but nothing on his early life in Scotland other than a letter of recommendation from a James Culrop, Minister of the Gospel, Stirling Scotland, dated 8 May 1852. Is there anybody out there with an interest in this man or family. All the best, Lyn and Trevor,Australia.

Lincolnshire / Hill Family, Pinchbeck,Lincolnshire.
« on: Thursday 07 May 09 11:18 BST (UK)  »
Have been researching my wife's Hill Family branch from Pinchbeck. Simon Hill was born c.1828 at Pinchbeck to parents Hardwick Hill b.1786 and Elizabeth Burton b.1791. Simon Hill married Mary Derby (b.1826 at Grantham) on 13 May 1850. Simon and Mary had a large family. Simon was a Miller and Baker by trade and had a shop in Pinchbeck so we are told. We are told that Simon Hill was in the choir at St. Mary's Church for 50 years and has a plaque in his honour within the church. Is there anyone else out there interested in this family? All the best from Lyn and Trevor, Australia.

Researching my wife's Andrews branch from Ryhall, Rutland. Her G Grandfather was John Robert Andrews, c.7 Mar 1869,Ryhall, Rutland. His father was apparently Edward and mother Mary. Some of John Robert's siblings were Sarah who married William McHew,Laura Louisa c. 29 Apr 1866 and Mary Elizabeth, c.7 Dec 1856, all at Ryhall. We believe there were more children in the family, but haven't located them yet. Hoping there is someone out their with an interest in this family. All the best from Lyn and Trevor, Australia.
