Tombowie Perthshire
« on: Friday 12 January 24 11:15 GMT (UK) »
I'm looking at the burial record for George McAinsh who was buried at Monzie Free Church, Perthshire on the 12th February 1850. His abode is not very clear but looks like Tombowie or something similar. I have Googled and nothing even remotely like it is coming up so I am assuming it doesn't exist any more but it is not showing on an old map either. Abodes such as Crieff and Gilmerton etc are on the pages so I assume it is in that vicinity.

Amazing! Thank you! Also thanks for the quick response. I will forward this to my contact. She has been trying to trace her McCanch/McCainsh for a long time. This will help focus her search.

Many thanks!

Good - I noticed George's baptism in 1791 at Monzie lists Tombuie as his parent's residence at the time

I found this oldscottish.com record dated 1834  which has some McCainsh on it. One from Tombowie so that must have been the spelling in those days.

I think that many names were spelt how they were pronounced  :)

Ahh! So this means that this George may be a different one or maybe we had the wrong George in the first place. Can you direct me to the 1791 baptism in Monzie please? The one my contact has was in Muckhart in 1810. It was the only George we could find. This she found on a recent trip from the US to Scotland where she found this informaition in the archives.

Got it. It's on Scotland's People with father Donald and mother Helen Drysdale. This may change things. I will pass this information on. Many thanks!
