Trying to find anyone with a George Mcneill born approx 1800 in Midlothian Scotland, one of his sons Charles Mcneill was also born in Midlothian Scotland who I have down as a Grocer so far. His decendants eventually moved to Annfield Plain. Co. Durham

Hi Ellen, thanks for your info - It is the correct Charles and George McNeill. Charles married twice by the looks of it - a Mary Ann Mitchell from Dumferline - then a Helen Mitchell in Gateshead, Tyne and Wear. Would there be any records on George McNeill born 27th Oct 1972 as I am looking for his parents for my family tree.

Thank you for you help, this has given me more acurate information for my family tree - What sources do you use to get your information?

Regards - Helen

Hi Helen, If it's a main line then you want "Scotlandspeople" for the Scottish side.Where was George McNeil c 1872 born.Scotland or England?

Ellen

Hi Helen The marriage of George McNeil and Margaret Logan 1819 should be on Scotlandspeople and may give info on where they came from. Scotlandspeople is an online site ,pay per view.Remember to use spelling as posted on thread.

Hi Ellen

George McNeill 1872 was born in Midlothian, Scotland. He is my great, great, great, great grandfather. Will check out Scotlandspeople when I'm off on Fri - apologies for not replying quickly - don't get much time to spend on this. Thanks for your help.
