Rosneath: MacDougall/Douglas
« on: Friday 03 March 06 23:05 GMT (UK) »
I am searching for the birthplace of Hugh MacDougall, born about 1785-1795 and married 23 NOV 1816 with Janet Douglas. They had at least 5 children in Rosneath, before they emigrated to Argentina where they settled. The children were Mary b. 20 DEC 1816, Christina b. 5 DEC 1818, James 20 AUG 1820, Catharine 11 JUL 1822 and Janet 1 JAN 1825.
Janet Douglas was born 22 APR 1794 in Rosneath. Her parents were James Douglas and Catherine Walker, so it seams that they lived with Janet's parents until they went to South America.
I'll be grateful for any suggestion.

George from Sweden
Davison - Nothumberland, Scotland and Argentina
Gibson - Northumberland
Vardy - Northumberland
Hardee - Argentina (originally from UK?)
Kingo - Fife, Scotland
& others...
...and then I have a lot in other parts of Europe and South America of course.

Hello George from Sweden (pitangus)
I hope I am still on time to liaise with you. I am a direct descendent of Hugh MacDougall and I do have some information about the family that I could share.
I have just registered here to contact you and I am not sure if I can safely disclose my email address at this time, but perhaps we can exchange some messages and then see if these are private.
I hope you can reply soon, I am excited and curious as to why you are interested in getting this information, are you also a descendent?
Look forward to hear from you.
G (i am in Canada)
