researching mine and my husbands family tree. My grandad John Smith died in 1988 and was married to Margaret Mcgrory, they had 7 children. If anyone has any information on any of my grandparents and their family.
On my husbands side we cannot get further than grandparents. The name Dow (surname) in Edinburgh area and Baldock - James Baldock who married Sheila Robb.
Let me know if anyone knows anything I can extend this with.
Looking for the antecedants of Simon Dalgleish from Edinborough and Alice Dawson from Kelso they left Scotland 1864 or 1865 from Edinborough to travel to Australia. They were aged 24 and 22 respectivly. Looking for any clues to this branch of the family. Thankyou, Jae
My great great grand parents were Simon Dalgleish born 14/6/39 and Alice Dawson born 17/4/43 who migrated to Australia in 1865. They are as far back as i can get to so far. I believe that Simon also had a brother (John) who i believe went to New Zealand. If these are the ones you are after let me know. Also if they are anything you have prior to them leaving England would be appreciated.
Hi Allan. Same ones but I'm in the same boat as you - nothing prior to them leaving Scotland! I have some very confusing information that infers they travelled in a ship called the Gosford or the Gosforth but I can find no record of such a ship in the maritime records or the records of early settler arrivals so I am wondering if they actually left the town of Gosford or Gosforth to come to South Australia as those were the days when not many ships actually disembarked passengers here. In the past I thought there was mention of them travelling separately but I can find no records to support this. You may have noticed I posted the query over a year ago and yours is the first response! I have similar posts for other branches of the family but no more luck there! We just have to wait and hope some one gets interested in their family tree some time soon! You can contact me direct on jaejae27@bigpond.com and if I have any info' you need you are welcome to it, Jae
Simon had a brother John Dalgleish b. 1842 and a sister named Jane b. 1849. They were born in Roxburgh.
I don't know anything about Jane yet but John was my great great grandfather - He married isabella Sevenson Cairns in 1869, had 3 sons that I know of Ninian Cairns b. 1879 who apparantly emigrated to Florida, Samuel Cairns b.1883, who emigrated to British Columbia in Canada and James Cairns who moved to Canada with his young family, once of whom was my grandfather
Their parent's were John Dalgleish - a flour miller from Kelso Scotland - b. 1815, d. 1849 (on New Year's EVE!!) and Sarah Deans b. 1816. I can't seem to find out any more about their parents but I haven't been working on this too long so I hope that I find something soon
I am thrilled to discover this Australian branch of the family and want to know more
