I apologize, you are looking for info on Janet Dalzell.

The problem is, I don't know who her parents were. Janet's death info, may have her parents.Shall keep looking, though.

Thanks for the birth info- that was their first son George who is my wife's great great g'father.  In 1836 George married at Ramsey IOM  where they lived for some years, then migrated to Australia in 1850s.

This could be George's marriage:

On the 11 Sept. 1836 - to Mary Stranny at Maughold, Isle of Man.

Not having much luck finding Janet Dalzell's parents though. Came across two Janet Dalzell births - 1790 parents - Gerard Dalzeil & Janet Inglis - Sanquhar, Scotland. 1793 - father - James Dalziel Kirkmichael, Ayr.

Shall go to the library, and and have a search, soon.

Yes _ we have the marriage details. Incidentally my wife and I pursued this some years ago while on holiday in UK when we visited Ramsey IOM, but found the info by internet much later. 
Thanks for your assistance.
I suppose that it would help if marriage cert for Robert and Janet showed name of her parent- is this usual for Scottish marriages ?
Birth info for Sanquhar seems a more likely fit, given : 1. spelling of Dalzell, 2. closer to Troqueer; 3.Janet's age would be 25 years- c.f. Robert b. 1787 who was 28 years old at marriage; and 4.mothers name Janet???.... just guessing !

Firstly, marriage details in Scotland can give the parents name, depending on how far back they married. 1816 may give their parents.

Unfortunately, the spelling of Dalzell, does vary, which doesn't help in the search.

Yes, Sanquhar does seem more likely and Janet would be 25, if born in 1790.

Will do some more searching and see what I can find.

Have attached Robert & Janet's marriage. Unfortunately, no parents names.

Have done a search on Scotlands People for Robert and Janet's death details, but nothing. Can't see them on the 1841/51 census, either.

Wonder if they moved from Scotland.
