Surnames: Thorburn Hamilton
I'm helping my friend to trace his family tree, which includes his Thorburn side of his family. I've managed to trace back to his relative Thomas Thorburn born 1805 in Selkirk, and it is believed that his father was also Thomas but I do not know when he was born or who he married. It was believed that Thomas (senior) went to America to visit relatives but died on the return journey.
Thomas (junior) married Joanna Hamilton, Joanna was the daughter of Gavin James Hamilton who was the minister of Ashkirk Parish Church.
I need help to trace Thomas Thorburn's brothers, sisters & parents.
Also there is a rumour in family that the Thorburn's are related to Sir Walter Scott.
