Looking for McKie/Hudson/McGuffie (Whithorn)

ProfilePosted byOptionsPost Date

Marie Report 27 Apr 2008 13:28

Hi, I am looking for information about my grandad. His name was George McKie (born c.1926) in the Isle of Whithorn, Wigtownshire, Scotland.

His father's name was Peter McKie (b.1869) and his mother's name was Jane McGuffie McKie (nee Hudson b.1872).

I think he had brothers called James (b.1890), John (b.1893), Thomas (b.1896) and Peter (b.1898) and sisters called Margaret (b.1894), Cassie (b.?) and Elizabeth (b.?). There may have been more siblings that I am not aware of.

I am trying to find the next link in the chain;

1. either who Peter McKie's parents were;
2. any other siblings of George McKie;
3. reason they moved from Isle of Whithorn to Manchester
4. family of Jane Muguffie Hudson (originally from Liverpool, moved to Isle of Whithorn, Scotland)
5. any other information you may have or links to family trees.

Thank you for your help! Much appreciated.

Marie McKie
