Find Ancestors

I will send you all the McKerrows on the LDS cds I can find and will do the same for Katherine and if you want to check on any of them let me know. Jo

hi joanne, just been looking again and realised my maths are wrong!!!!! James would have been 14 not 24 in 1881. Born in 1867. Still working on the Katherine Brown. Gloria.

Hi Thanks for the info. not quite sure what to make of it. Looks like the correct age for James McKerrow and the same area but I only knew of 1 sister Janet and she is not listed. Just checked my reords and their father died 1909. The family listed had a brother as the head of house. So I am not sure about that!!more research is needed on this inflormation. The 2 Katherines (with a K ) one is listed as imbecile so i think unlikely to be her. Which just leaves the other one!!! More research needed here I think.Thanks for all the info. Gives me something to work on. Gloria

This is what I found from LDS 1881, there are lots of Catherines but only 2 I can see with K Dwelling: 20 Railway Cottage Census Place: Dundonald, Ayr, Scotland Source: FHL Film 0203599 GRO Ref Volume 595 EnumDist 7 Page 6 Marr Age Sex Birthplace Hugh MCKERROW U 29 M New Cummock, Ayr, Scotland Rel: Head Occ: Railway Agent Mary MCKERROW U 32 F New Cummock, Ayr, Scotland Rel: Sister Occ: House Keeper James MCKERROW U 24 M New Cummock, Ayr, Scotland Rel: Brother Occ: Railway Clerk David MCKERROW U 22 M New Cummock, Ayr, Scotland Rel: Brother Occ: Engineer Labourer U Dwelling: 2 Bruntsfield Place Census Place: Edinburgh St Cuthberts, Edinburgh, Scotland Source: FHL Film 0224012 GRO Ref Volume 685-5 EnumDist 121 Page 9 Marr Age Sex Birthplace George BROWN M 42 M Rel: Head Occ: Baker Employing 5 Men 3 Boys 2 Women Georgina C.

James Dickson McKerrow (spouse 0f Katherine Brown) was from Lanarkshire, Douglas area so I presume she would have been from near by. Gloria

Do you know what area in Scotland? There are a lot of Katherines. Jo

hi gloria , have you asked someone to do a 1881 census search for you , jackie

I have tried several avenues but cant find Katherine Brown details. She was born 1871 and died 1901. Was married to James Dickson McKerrow. I would really like to find parents or siblings names if possible.
