We used to live in Leadhills, but left 1987 - never realised we would find relations from there.

Hi Caroline

I have a note in a very old email on my computer regarding looking up Rev Ian Porteous of Crawfordjohn, with a  lnk to what must be the old Crawfordjohn website – probably long since moved to its current location.

I can't find reference to Rev Ian there, and i wonder whether you have anything about him?

Many thanks

Hello Poppysmum.
Is Crawford John any where near Crawford and Leadhills Lanark. I am trying to locate the marriage or death and parents of a James Weir and Marion Anderson. They had around 7 children with the first born Marion~1818, other children were Nicholas, John, Ann,  Thomas,James and Robert.
Robert emigrated to Australia with his wife Jane Inglis.
I don't have the marriage date for James or Marion.
Thanks,
 Pam

Hi Jess

Great offer .... I am a direct descendant of the Harkness family who have a few mentions in the graveyard (image attached..?), I really need to visit again when the Heritage centre is open.

But I do not have any info re the demise of William Harkness (husband of and Janet Callan who died 1823) he was the father of Thomas, from the attached image.

Any info welcome.
