now, Elizabeths Parents: John Gibson Tweedie b. 18 Apr 1817 Mouswald d. 1 Dec 1877 Lochmaben. He married Phillis Steele b. 1821 Lochmaben. I have no information on her parents.
John Gibson Tweedie's parents: James Tweedie b. 26 Aug 1773 Caelaverock d. abt 1830 Caelaverock. He married (date and place unknown) Bette Gibson.
To this point, this is a collateral line, so I do no have any other information than what I have shown. The next generation will be my 5th g-grandparents:
