Hi Anne Marie,i cant help you with the Cockburn line as i am not researching this name,the reason i had the childrens birth dates is i collected a lot of info regarding birth marriage and deaths when i first started and i was reluctent to through it all away,i am pleased i could help you with the birth dates.Did you already have the childrens dates.If you come across another name related to the Darries let me know as i have loads of them.I wish i could find mine,its such an unusual name you would think it would be easy to trace.Anyway if there is anything else i can do to help just let me know.Anne.

Hi Anne
Have you read the other posts - quite a lot of info on Darry Deaths. 
Do you have any info on William Darry (married to Nellie)  From the Death info (kindly supplied by ajjbc) I believe William's parents may have been George Darrie and Helen.  I would be really interested in any of the Darrie info you have.
Look forward to hearing from you

Hi
Thanks for the info
Sorry - got so excited with the details that I forgot to answer your question! I did have the years for the children, but not the exact dates - this is very much appreciated
Thanks again for your time

Anne Marie,i think your William Darrie and my Thomas Darrie were brothers,i think its so hard to find them because maybe they were born over the English side of the border and we are looking in the place.It just seems a coincidence that my Thomas and your William were both born late 1700s we cant trace their births or marriages,i think its strange.I havent tried Scotlands People but i will at the weekend when i am not working and i will let you know what happens.Anne.
