Hi.  Just come across your post.  I have just discovered a Helen Darry in my tree, born 1804 in Duns, Berwick, daughter of William Darry and Nelly Cockburn.  I was just about to post a plea myself!!  Any connection?

Hi,

I have quite a few Darries in my tree.

Jean Darrie was born in Edrom 1786 and married Robert Thorburn

Jean's parents were George Darrie 1757 and Jean Martin 1769.

George's parents were Alexander Darrie and Margaret Purves (married about 1749)

Alexander's parents were George Darrie and Agnes Middlemass both born about 1705 in Duns

I have quite a lot of information on Jean's and George's siblings but I've now come to a standstill.

If anyone has anything that could help it would be appreciated.

I have an Isabelle Purves married to William Clazy in Coldstream and I have an Agnes Middlemist or Middlemass married to George Claise in abt. 1750.  William was a son of George and Agnes.  Purves, Clazy, Middlemiss (various spellings) all lived in the same area.

I ansung,

I believe they were Robert Thorburn ca.1736 Coldingham? died 20/11/1816 Coldingham age 79 & Elizabeth Melrose ca.1746 Coldingham? died 10/5/1817 age 70 Coldingham.

But you could check Roberts birth on SP, died 22/8/1848 Coldingham age 63.

James Thorburn died 10/3/1855 Coldingham age 73 & Ann Mosley 22/3/1843 age 53, son George 23/12/1897 age 79.

Am conected with the Thorburn family through a marriage to a David Aitchison, but have not looked up a lot of the Thorburn side.
