MACKIE, Blackburn, West Lothian

[NPEWhoopsThatsMe]

Hi everyone,

I am not having much luck tracing WILLIAM MACKIE (1871-1946) and his wife MARGARET NIELSON (1873-1952) in the 1911 census and I'm hoping there might be some clues in there. I believe they married 03/06/1892.

In 1901, they are in Burnfoot, West Calder:

Household Members
William Mackie Age 30
Thomas Malkie [sic] Age 28
Maggie Mackie Age 27
John Neilson Age 21
William Mackie Age 7
Maggie Mackie Age 5
Andrew Mackie Age 3
Thomas Malkie [sic] Age 1

Thank you very much in advance for your kindness and help.

Unfortunately, my MacKie ancestor's name does not match any in your inquiry.  However, I wonder if Hugh McKie/MacKie is a name you are familiar with?  Hugh McKie was the informant for the death record of my ancestor, Jane SUTHERLAND, died 20 April 1857, District of St Giles, Edinburgh; daughter of Hugh SUTHERLAND, Sergeant of Police, deceased, and Isabella SUTHERLAND, maiden name MCCULLOCH.  (Isabella MCCULLOCH was born in Lanark, Glasgow, father possibly Michael McCULLOCH).  For the statutory death register, Hugh McKIE was documented as Jane's Grand Uncle.  Jane was buried in New Calton Burying Ground. Jane Sutherland and her parents and siblings, Andrew and James,  lived in Midlothian, Edinburgh 1840's - 1860's.

If these names or history register with you or with anyone reading, please contact me.

Thank you.
