Where did you find out about Alexander Leslie and Jean Forsyth? The Monaro Pioneers website does not go back that far unfortunately, but does state that my Great-great-grandmother Elspeth Brownlie (nee Leslie) was born in Aberdeen in 1852 (16/5/1852)

There was the Leslie family that Elspet and James's second daughter Margaret Helen Simpson married into, that I'm descended from Forfarian.

James Dunbar Leslie (b. 11/10/1801 in New Duffes, Morayshire, Scotland - d. 28/8/1890 in Bombala, NSW) was the son of William Leslie and Margaret Leslie (nee Mason) and married Margaret Helen Simpson on the 9th of August 1829 in St. Nicholas' Church, Aberdeen, Scotland.

James and Margaret Leslie are my Great-great-great-grandparents through their youngest daughter (and youngest child) Elspeth Brownlie (nee Leslie).

Hi Cheryl,

I don't have any further information on Elspet and John unfortunately, but as I am also Elspet and John's great-great-great-great grandchild, I too am keen to find out more about them. I am descended from John and Elspet through their second daughter Margaret Ellen Leslie and found out the information through the Monaro Pioneers website.

I hope to keep in touch and if you find anything out keep us in the loop.

Regards,

Michael Davis
