Duns families
« on: Tuesday 23 August 05 23:11 BST (UK) »
Greetings.

I have been researching my wife’s family, some of whom come from the Duns area:

I wonder if anyone else is working on the same families and has information on either the earlier generations or local descendants.

Hugh Rose, probably married to Catharine Davidson b 12.2.1750/51, father of George Rose, born 1796 in Duns. George Rose married Mary Cockburn b 1798, Duns.

Catharine Davidson’s parents may have been Thomas Davidson b 1722 Duns and Jane Williams, b 1726, Duns.

Mary Cockburn’s parents may have been William Cockburn and Catharine Bryce, the latter b 1768 in Duns, married 18 Dec 1797.

Robert Donaldson b 1768 in Duns, whose parents may have been James Donaldson and Helen Ford. Robert Donaldson may have married Magdalen Paterson. Robert’s son James may have married Margaret Brown

I am also tying to trace a Thomas Wight who was born in Bowden 15 Nov 1788.

Many thanks for any help
