Thanks Annie. I take it that Ballaiskaille no longer exist today as I cannot find any other record of it.

thanks Annie. I dont have a larger piece but tenant makes sense as I think they were sheep farmers around Kilimonivaig. So my guess is the second work is a place around Speans Bridge.

Europe / Devers and German Butchers
« on: Thursday 30 December 21 07:39 GMT (UK) »
Hi All
I have ancestors from Germany who were all butchers.
** Heinrich Devers (alt Henry, Davars, Dabers, Daevers, Daebers) - born c1790 died c1851 - Kingdom of Hanover
** son Christian Devers (alt Hermann Christian) born c1820 Salzgitter and died 1898 Rutherglen Aust - emigrated to Australia 1858
** son Christian Devers - born 1851 Salzgitter (maybe Kneidstedt Village) and died 1924 Aust - emigrated to Australai on "Marpesia" in 1870 aged 16 (there is a german record that says he was born 1856 but he says in his naturalisation papers he was born 1851)
I am very interested in the training of german butchers had to do, where I could get records such as any Wanderpasses. Also I have a theory that Christian b1851 did not emigrate with his parents as he was already doing a butcher apprenticeship and maybe left before he did journeyman part of his training.
CAn anyone provide some good links of information and/or point me in the direction of records.
Thanks
