Margaret Orme
« on: Wednesday 15 August 12 17:27 BST (UK) »
Seeking descendants and ancestors for Margaret Orme b Fife, probably Kennoway or Markinch as that is where her children were born and where her husband is from.

Margaret Orme and George Watson had two children that I can find so far.  According to scotlandspeople:
James Watson b 1797
John Watson b 1805

James Watson married Janet Duncan in Cupar, Fife.
Children:  Janet, George, James, Andrew, John, David and Peter.

Their son Andrew married Christina Robertson who died after giving birth to their fourth child Christina.

Children of Andrew and Christina:  James Robertson Watson, Jane Robertson Watson, Andrew Robertson Watson and Christina Robertson Watson.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks!

I'm researching Kennoway and have some data that might help. I have added some of the info. that everybody has posted here so there will be a fair bit of repetition, however you should find some new bits and bobs. It's quite lengthy so have split it into four messages, again with repetition.
If it helps I can send a GEDCOM to anyone who wishes to save the time re-keying.
