Hi Gloria
You might find this interesting ??
I,ve found a David McBurnie that married
Margaret Johnstone on Nov.20 1831 in Troqueer. Its in the IGI batch no# M118825
I havent checked this out yet but there first male child "might" have been named after his father. The father might have died ?  and your Mary / Margaret remarried or both parents might have died and your mary took the child to raise herself. Theres lots of possibilitys . Isent this a fun hobby 
In the IGI Batch no# (  Hellon McBurnie who married Thomas Coupland is mine.

 In the www.dumgal.go.uk 1851 census in (Shipping Registers )  They have my ggg grandfather ( Captain John McBurnie )  of the schooner Lord Nelson. Lost at sea in 1839. His memorial headstone beside troqueer church lists his age as 39yrs old at death. so he would have been b:abt.1799 or 1800
 I have his marriage to Ann Irving in 1824  Plus all his children ect ect  But I cant seem to find his parents and siblings. The ( parish record of marriage) just states ( John McBurnie of Tinwald payed 5 schillings ) to wed ann Irving. No parents listed ? I figure there must be a record of his death some were
that might give his parents names.   Can anyone help me with this ??

Hi drake
 Sorry drake , dident mean to confuse things.  Ive got the parish entry for my ( John McBurnie b:1798 ) and ann Irving marriage in 1824 but it dosent give his parents names. All it says  is ( John McBurnie of Tinwald payed 5 shilings ) to be wed to Ann Irving.  But I cant connect him to  anyone in Tinwald. Ive been trying to Find a list of McBurnies that lived in Tinwald around that time but no luck so far, just the odd referance in other family sites Danzle/corbitt. The John I cant find a marriage or death certif or parish entry for is William McBurnie and Helen Hannah of penninham's son ( John McBurnie b:1795) He seems to be the only other John McBurnie that was born in that time frame. I did find a John McBurnie in Renfrew born on same date as mine but he was married to another lady plus all the family names were different.  My Johns first son was named ( william ). I presume he was named after my Johns father ??

  Thanks pam. I need all the help I can get.
