Gourlay's in Kirkpatrick Fleming
« on: Wednesday 08 July 20 16:10 BST (UK) »
Dear All

I am also looking for the two Gourlay brothers who is the sister in  the link Gourlay/Paterson ( Agnes Gourlay/Paterson).

The two brothers are William Gourlay born 20 March 1825 in Kirkpatrick Fleming, Dumfriesshire and David Gourlay born 17 May 1828 again born Kirkpatrick Fleming their parents were George Gourlay and Agnes Young.  Gourlay can be spelt in many ways!!

Any help would  be very gratefull

Regards
Oletta

I forgot to say that William, Agnes , David and other sister Elizabeth are all on the 1851 census in Kirkpatrick Fleming with their parents (George and Agnes) and 3 of George and Agnes's grandchildren.
Nancy and Mary Patterson are Agnes's children with George Paterson,  Don't know who the other child's parent is!!

Have you checked the birth on SP? 

Have you looked on the censuses after 1851 for them?

Have you checked SP for marriages?

Misleading - David is not on the 1851 and father George appears to be a widower

1851 - all b KF except g/dt Agnes

George Gourly    65
Agnes  30 daughter
William  26 son
Elizabeth  16 daughter
Mary Paterson    5
Nancy Paterson    3
Agnes Gonely (Gourly) 5 Alloa, Clackmannan

Kirkpatrick Fleming ED 3 Page 15 Line 1

1841 entry has no son David either?

John  25
Margret  25
George    20
Agness     20
Robert  15
William  13
Jean  10
