the reason you cant find evan 1841 is because he is listed as ebenezer  he is the gamekeeper on hoddom estate        young john was a ploughman in ruthwell ladyhall 1861  in the 1891 census he is in north sheilds with wife ellen born nsheilds children christina sarah jane peter alexander and elizabeth   csc

Hi Allan,

I liver along the road at Ruthwell and can have a look for the stone tomorrow (weather permitting) if you still want someone to check it out.

CSC - thanks for all that - it will need some 'digesting'
Intend to get Janes DCert from ScotPeople later this week -at this time out of credits

MORAG - as you say - weather permitting -
yes I would appreciate your having look, and maybe a piccy (he says hopefully)
but - its unlikely to move anytime in the near future - so no rush, choose a nice day.

Thanks All

Allan

I know nothing of Alexander's birth, only can estimate from MI, place unknown.

There is an Edward in Troqueer in 1841 - dont know if its relevant.

 CSC - how did you find Even on 1841??

From Ancestry website 1841 transcriptions
1841 Gamekeeper Hoddern M
Ebenezer Iwudise 35
Agness Lowsie 20
 
Well - would I ever have found that -who is Agness??- if his wife was Jane?
did you see original or transcrip?
