Darry death in Duns

[KPM]

Hi Anne
Unfortunately, the Darry family have proved to be my biggest challenge yet and the brickwall seems determined to stay put!!!  I havent progressed at all since we last spoke - and not through lack of trying!!
Eventually, I decided the best thing to do would be to concentrate on another branch of the tree and hopefully when I return to them I can start again and perhaps see what I've been overlooking for the last year or so.  I do intend to start with this family again this year and will of course let you know if I have any break throughs.  The good side of the story is that I made contact with a (several times removed) cousin but like me she is just as stuck!!!

Hi Anne
Yes I am registered with Genes - I will have another look at the Darrys and Cockburns - not checked any recently as they're 'on hold' . I also have an Ancestry subscription (wouldnt be without it!!) but thank you for the kind offer

Just to say that there are no Darries in Dunns 1841, but 2 families in 1851.

James aged 23 born Whitsome and wife Charlotte 20 born Chesters.

Anthony Darrie aged 34 born Coldingham and wife Isabella born Chirnside, 3 children born Whitsome/Edrom.

Hi Anne & Beckey
Anne - I have never been able to find the marriage details of William & Nellie.  I believe this would have taken place around 1798/99.  If you could find this, this would be a huge brick out of my wall!!  Thank you so much for your kind offer.

Beckey - My 'Darry' married in 1804 and only had sisters so I have no Darry's in any census but thank you for looking.  As Anne said, there are so many people researching them that hopefully this will be a great help to someone.
