Hi, Lynette.
As far as I have already mentioned I have these surnames related to the Murrays : Fergusson, McMiken, Wallace, Barbour and Drummond. The Wallaces are not my husbands family but relations of my gt grandmother from Dailly. One of the sons, James, moved to Dalmellington and the Murrays stayed with them during the 1890's. I also found another family of Murrays in Craigmark, Dalmellington at this time. They were Peter and George Murray originally from Sorn. Also when my gt grandfather came to live in Symington they stayed with a Janet Murray, a spinster, at Whitelees Creamery near Bogend Toll just outside Kilmarnock. Her family were from Wigtownshire. I am still not sure if this is just a coincidence or whether they were actually related.
Good luck with your research. Thanks for your help.
