I am looking for any information on the family of William Aird (b 14 Jul 1818 in Old Cumnock, Ayrshire) and Margaret McDonald. They were married 8 Dec 1839 somewhere in Ayrshire and later lived in Muirkirk, where three of their four children were born (Charlotte, b. 30 May, 1840; Margaret, b. 1842; Matthew, b. 9 Feb 1845). By the time the fourth child, james was born, on 12 Jul 1857, the family had moved to Dundee.

I have no information about William's parents, nor about Margaret McDonald and would be most grateful for any light that anyone might be able to shed on the matter.

Sincerely,

Steve Aird
