this is the story of Elizabeths mum. Marion and Elizabeth Ramage are they the same person?
daughter Elizabeth Brown (mrs Davidson) died 1872.age 51, (therefor born abt 1821) image states parents Robert Brown Deceased, Marion Ramage (not recorded as deceased.)
Marion Ramage (married or banns) Robert Brown a wright at St Cuthberts Edinburgh in 1814. Her father recorded as Alexander Ramage a Tailor in Broughton.
( peebleshire??)
Marion was living at 140 Grassmarket with James Lindsay ? ( may have been a servant in his house
)
can find no birth records of any children.
No record of death can be found
There is an Elizabeth Ramage born 1792 in St Cuthberts, Father Alexander mother Elizabeth Smith.(siblings born in Peebleshire)
Elizabeth Ramage married Robert Brown at St Cuthberts in 1829,
record shows "Robert Brown wright living at 42 Fountainbridge and Elizabeth Ramage at the same place, daughter of Alexander Ramage tailor of Burrowmuirhead. three times proclaimed. No objections."
( other entries on the same page all have dates of marriage and minister's name this one does not.)
Elizabeth died in Newington Edinburgh in 1874. image shows widow of Robert Brown joiner, parents Alexander Ramage tailor & Elizabeth Smith.
Elizabeth Brown the daughter had her first four children named Thomas, Janet, (praternal grandparents) Alexander, and Elizabeth, ( maternal grandparents
??)
