PEAT/PEET, Mary 1758c Lesmahagow
« on: Thursday 07 February 08 12:30 GMT (UK) »

Could anyone help me with a lookup for the birth/christening of my 5xGreat-Grandmother, Mary PEAT/PEET, please?

I would love to find her family and be able to go back further. 

Mary was born Lesmahagow abt 1758c

She was married to fellow by the name of WEIR before she was transported to Australia from England.

She 'may' also had a brother James or John who  was a Reverend.

Any assistance would be most welcomed!

Thank you,

Christine

PS What 'evidence' do you have that she was born in Lesmahagow?

Post everything you know and details of your sources.

Happy to, but Why? 
If Mary 'Peat' was born c1758, her married name Weir would not be mentioned.
Am I missing something?

I am following every possibilty... :)

May be she was a WEIR/WARE who married a PEET/PEAT/PATE/PETE???

This information was taken from the Sydney Morning Herald Newspaper Reel, BMD 1831-1853: Death memorial.

"LARCOM" Mrs
Had been in the Colony 40 years died 9 Mar 1841
Mother of the late Colonel Peat and Rev'd James Peat of Inner Leithan, Scotland"

The above is about my 5xGreat-Grandmother, Mary.  Maybe - PEAT was her married name?


Cheers,

Christine
