John Drummond/ Jean Currie, from Falkirk to Australia
« on: Monday 15 February 10 18:08 GMT (UK) »
John was the son of John Drummond and Isabella McDuff. He was born in 1791 in Crieff and married Jean Currie in 1822 in Falkirk. They had 8 children: John, b. 1823, Ireland ; William, b.1825, Falkirk; Peter, b. 1828 in England; Janet, b. 1830, Falkirk;  David Reid, b. 1834, Australia; James, b. 1835, Aus; Catherine, b. abt 1840, Australia; George McDuff, b. 1843, Aus, m. Margaret Murray. I descend from John’s brother, William. I would be interested to exchange any information from anyone who descends from this line.

Not that line, but tantalizingly close threads of info. I have Janet McDougall, daughter of John McDougall and Margaret Drummond in the Perth area. Janet married Thomas Nicol in 1803. I am looking for information on both John McDougall and Margaret Drummond.
I've also got Alice Curlie/Currie/Carrey (depending on what document you are trying to read) married to John Culbertson about 1805 or so. She is the daughter of James whatever that last name is and Helen Shiels. I would love to find something on this family as well.  If you have come across any of them in your searches, I'd much appreciate a point in the right direction.

Hi Jimmain,
I am in Australia, I am from the same Drummond line as you.   John Drummond b. 1791 was my 3rd great grandfather.
I have got back to Josiah Drummond, who married to Emilie Cearer/Crerar and then Ann Graeme, but I don't have information on Josiah's parents.  I am very interested to exchange information with you.  Not sure how to use this chat.
Am I allowed to give you and ask for your email addy?
Regards,
Diane aka EyesOz
