Hi. Is anyone still following this thread.
I’ve been recently researching the Currie’s on Bute (as my wife is one) and found this thread.
I have info on John Currie, Tacksman of Ardbeg and his wife Margaret Black, his son John Currie and wife Janet Campbell, and his son John Currie and 1st wife Margaret Sproul.
My wife’s line is the third John’s son, Robert W Currie b1853.
Please do get in touch if you would like to share further info.
Thanks
