Stewart-Ettershank-Higgins Lanark
« on: Monday 13 February 06 00:40 GMT (UK) »
My great great grandmother, born Catherine Higgins 1815, married James Stewart 7/8/1856, after the death of my grandfather, George Ettershank. She had two sons by her first marriage, my grandfather James Ettershank b. 9/11/1850) and George (b. 8/1/1854) who died in childhood.
I found James and Catherine in the 1871 census in Lanark. It appears as if James had a daughter Mary (b. 1852) already, and then they had three more, Elisa, Andrew and Catherine in ca. 1856, 1862 and 1867 respectively.
On the marriage certificate, James' parents are John Stewart and Martha Crawford.
Can anyone give further information about this family and any descendants.
