Hi back again.... Had a trip last year (2008) & spent some time in Scotland but don't appear to be much further ahead with my Christina Sutherland born 1838 Dunbeath. Still believe it was her in 1861 census with the Bain family. One thing I did find out was her mother's name was Christian...

Does any member know of ANGLAND families around 1800's - 1900 who lived near Newmarket or other townships around that area in Co. Cork and also in Co. Kerry Ireland. Also interested in any who married ANGLANDS. Would be most grateful for any information. Thankyou, DianneZ

Hi Julie, No I didn't see your email....golly gosh..I wonder if I deleted it by mistake. Would you mind very much resending it. So sorryto be such a pain. Didn't any of your hubbies Shearers come from Orkney...would so love to be able to help you, as I go back to Peter Shearer born 15 March...

Julie you are delving so hard into everything to help me....can't thank you enough. Belonging to Genesreunited I contacted another member with Archibald Cook Sutherland...she also had heaps of Sutherlands but not one connected to any of mine as far as I can see. Have access to her tree & have...

Julie, Your last posting re Archibald Cook Sutherland & his father Alexander Sutherland marrying an Elizabeth Bain sounds promising. Wonder if Alexander's father was an Archibald Cook Sutherland too & just maybe, his mother was a Cook. Thankyou for that Julie. Di

Hi Julia, Does that mean we put the Christina in the William & Janet Sutherland (nee Bruce) family 1841 & 1861 census aside in the meantime. To me,ever since I have been looking for Christina I have found none with her birthdate with a William Sutherland for father & Christina Sutherland for...

Julie, Many thanks. Would they have her twice in 1861 census's, one where she worked & the other where she lived ..that's if Shinvall is close to Wick. Both sound like her. Your find in 1861 does seem to be the same family as 1841 A James Sutherland was a witness at Christina's wedding...

Thankyou Julia, The Christina Sutherland in the 1861 census born abt 1839 Dunball, I also feel should be Dunbeath ,certainly sounds like my Christina. Could you tell me who else was at the address in Mowatts Lane. Was it a private home do you think. Also were you able to find William & Janet...

Hi Julie, The ones I really want to find are Margaret b.1818; Donald & John b.abt 1833. If you can find them on the last census they were in Caithness then I may be able to find when they came out to New Zealand. They were the only ones that I know of who came to NZ. Won't be easy as they may...

Julie...thankyou...you are a gem, doing all these lookups for me. Once again could you possibly look up siblings in 1851 census in Thurso. I have come across a Catherine, James, James William & Archibald Cook Sutherland who I feel are related to her. My Shearers came from Stronsay, Orkney...

Thank you Julie for sending rest of household. None of the other names ring a bell but then I don't know who his siblings or parents were. From his obit he was at sea for several years..My only hope is that his boy's names may help find his family. His daughter was named after his wife's mother...
