Hello, my name is Jackie, I am not a descendent of the Storrie family, but my Gr Gr Gr Grandfather William Pender was married to Bethea Storrie, they had 10 children one being my Gr Gr Grandfather John Pender, who was born 19 January 1818 at Cultsykefoot Farm Whitburn.  I hope this little bit of information will be of interest to you.  I am trying to trace my father's family line, on his mother's side.

                                            Regards
                                              Jackie

Hi Jackie, I am unsure whether this is in relation to any of my family, i am a Storrie, my dads name is Charles Russell Storrie, his father was George who married Helena(Lena) Kennedy, my gr8 grandfather was also Charles Russell who married Catherine Murray, my gr8 gr8 grandparents were George and Jessie(Russell) and my gr8 gr8 gr8 grandparents were Edward and Jane(Docherty, last but not least my gr8 gr8 br8 gr8 grandparents were George and Elizabeth(Fletcher), most of them came from Shotts, Lanark. Do any of these names mean anything to you?

                                               Regards Karen

Hello Karen, I have just read your reply and not one of the names you have mentioned have any connection to me, so I guess it is a different Storrie family.  I wish you all the very best with your search and I'm sure someone of the right Storrie family will be in touch with you.

                                               Regards
                                                Jackie

Hi Karen,
I am new to the site so am just browsing through at the moment.
Have you looked at all the different spelling options of Storrie.
I have ancestors who started off Storie then in some censuses & certificates it was Storrie, Story & Storey.
My Ancestors came from Ireland but I can't find out which part. They then settled in St Quivox Ayrshire & I do know some moved to Lanarkshire as a lot did for work.

The 1851 Lanarkshire (County area) Census index has 35 Storrie's listed born as far apart as Hull and Lanarkshire

Hi there Sossle, thanks for the reply, as far as i know my ancestors too possible originate from Ireland but which part i have no idea, it is now very frustrating trying to work out if they are or not. I have a family tree on Genes Reunited if you want to look at it if you are a member.  regards Karen
