Gourlay/Paterson Family
« on: Friday 31 January 20 15:43 GMT (UK) »
Dear All

Can anyone please help me.  I am looking for information on Agnes Gourlay born 1821 in Kirkpatrick Fleming her parents are George Gourlay and Agnes Young, I don't have a death for Agnes (born 1821).  She has two children Nancy and Mary, Nancy born 27 January 1848 in Kirkpatrick Fleming and Mary born 9 October 1845 also in Kirkpatrick Fleming.  I am looking for the deaths and marriages on the children.  Both the children's Father is George Paterson.  But I cannot find a marriage for George and Agnes!

Regards
Oletta

Hi,
There is a marriage on SP for an Agnes Gourlay to John Carlile at Dornock, Dumfries 1857, not sure if it is right Agnes Gourlay.

Easy enough to check by viewing a copy of the marriage certificate at www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk
Never trust anything you find online (especially submitted trees and transcriptions on Ancestry, MyHeritage, FindMyPast and other commercial web sites) unless it's an image of an original document - and even then be wary because errors can and do occur.

Hello All

Thank you kindly for your replies.  No the Agnes married to John Carlile is a different Agnes. 

I don't know if this is Nancy Paterson but there is one that says born Scotland, Dumphires (which I would think is Dumfries), arrived in port of Honolulu, Hawaii, (1900-1959), but I can't get into it!!!
Can anyone help. please!
Regards
Oletta
