If you have a look on Scotlandspeople, there is a female E. Porteous baptised Kirkmichael in 1799, no others in the 1800-1812 date range though (this just from search result narrowing  - I've not seen the actual record).


I was in the Kirkyard briefly yesterday -  there were certainly one or two stones with Porteous or Gillespie on them, although I didn't note any details of them.

...and I should extend credit to Graham & Emma Maxwell for making their images of the Dumfriesshire Valuation Roll (1896-97) available on their website; http://www.maxwellancestry.com/ancestry/resources/dumfriesshirevaluationroll.htm

Hi, the 1915 and 1920 valuation rolls available on the Scotland's people site may provide some more recent info than the 1911 census - it will show proprietor/tenant/occupier/inhabitant occupier. The 1896-97 valuation roll showed both Lochbrow and Kerse as being owned by John James Hope Johnstone at that time (i.e. Annandale); tenants were Barr and McGregor respectively.
