looking for janet shearer, who married alexander paterson. alexander was born 08/05/1754 in avondale, lanark.

A Francis Frew and Ann Wallace were married 13 Jan 1833 and had a son named Robert Frew. Am interested if there are more children.

I have a Shearer family in or around Glasgow. My names are John D2/5/1893, Agnes(Sister of George Kidd or Janet Hay), Robert, Margaret, and George. John went to the US in 1865 and settled in Troy, NY and later in Meadville, PA. Any connection?

Dear Rhoda,
Sorry, I can't really help you, my William Boyle is being very hard to trace !.
I have him married to an Isabella Foster in Girvan 1852.
On the 1861 census he gives his age as 37 and place of birth as Dailly.( dob c. 1824 )I can find no trace of him.

Curiosly, I have also received an e-mail today from Anita Lorenz, searching for a James Boyle and Eliza Campbell. They were married in Kirkoswald on 10/7/1835.
If I find out any more I'll let you know.

Regards from a very wet and windy Kirkoswald.
Margaret.
