James Alexander and Janet Campell of Kilmarnook

[Bertsbees]

Hello, I am trying to find any info on James Alexander and his wife , Janet Campbell .  Janet was born abt 1813, I have no birth year for James.    James was associated with the Associated Congregation of Kilmarnook , ( i believe he left that church in 1829)   Janet was from the United Secession Church of Kilmarnook, and left that church in 1830.     They left for USA and settled in Connecticut, John was a weaver.     I am also trying to find info on Janets sister, Isabella, who was born abt 1810. She also left for the USA in 1848 with her husband John McArthur, and 4 sons,
     
Any help would be greatly appreciated,  Thanks,Bert

No marriage in Ayrshire but two elsewhere, the first being more likely, unless they were in the USA by then?

Colin, was this supposed to be on one of the existing MacArthur threads?

One of the reasons why all links are useful to save duplication of effort as those were addressed here;

I responded to the Ayrshire post as there were no responses, I was unaware of the Lanarkshire post
