hi andy, i am descended from anne brand and john longmuir through my maternal grandmother who was meta jeanetta steel howie.
my records have john longmuir's parents as james longmuir and margaret walker. john longmuir and anne brand had a son called kirkpatrick w. longmuir who married elizabeth balfour. they had a son who married Bridget welsh. they had a daughter called georgina m .longmuir who was married to john byers but georgina had a laison with a thomas moore (a groom to georgina & john byers) which produced a daughter whose name was mary jane longmuir, my great grandmother. mj longmuir married james m. howie and their daughter was meta jeanetta steele howie. she then married alexander crichton and their daughter, my mother, was born in 1932 in rattrey. hope this helps
