East Lothian (Haddingtonshire) / Re: ROSEBERRY, Athelstaneford
« on: Thursday 15 September 22 13:39 BST (UK)  »
Hi what a lot of information re Horseburgh/Rosebery.   I am connected to Horseburgh being a great-great-grand-daughter of Thomas Horseburgh and Helen Cateleugh.   As I live in South Australia wondered who the Australian connection might be

Was good to hear ftom you pity we don't show as DNA  matching on Ancestry sometimes I find Ancestry
matching a bit odd.   I have matches that I know are no connection.   I am in contact with a descendant of Adam Crookston who lives in New York.   There are so many Crookstons all descended from James Crookstoun and Janet Lambe.   Am definitely starting a Crookston tree.   If couse you can take from my tree only too happy to help.   Regards from a perfect Adelaide day  - Pat
Sorry meant James and Margaret Wilsone

Nice to hear from you so quickly and yes I have had  DNA done by Ancestry.   I have a public tree Knevitt/Anderson/Boulton/Hay but am seriously thinking about a Crookston and their families as there are so many.

William Crookston and Helen Cowan are my 6 x great-grandparents.
Their son James  m Agnes Hogg
     "       "    James m Jean Hog
(This James is a brother to Joanna (Jackie) who m William Ross.   After ger death William m Janet Hogg who was a 1st cousin to Jackie)

James and Jean had Helen 1784 who married Peter Hay.   One of their sons Archibald had a daughter Alison m Edwin Boulton born in England.    Archibald and his family arrived in South Australia in 1859.   Alison was born in Newton and m Edwin in SA.    One of threir daughters Sarah m James Knevitt their son Herbert is my late father.   

Hope it makes sense.   So do you have a tree on Ancestry?    Haven't worked out yet what number cousin so many times removed yet.

Inverness / Alexander Munro/Margaret Laing
« on: Tuesday 08 September 09 08:02 BST (UK)  »
Am wondering if there is any way I can find a marriage for Alexander Munro and Margaret Laing of North Uist circa 1770?     I know Alexander had a daughter Mary married to Murdo Macdonald and I have in my scribbling her mother as Margaret Laing.
Thanks in anticipation of hearing from anone with interests in the same names
