I'd like a look up please for the following RITCHIE family in Scotland in 1881.

They married in Edinburgh but from privately submitted IGI entries it seems the children were born in Dirleton.

David RITCHIE Spouse: Catherine MOFFATT
20 Nov 1875 Edinburgh Parish, Edinburgh, Midlothian

David b. ?
Catherine b. ?
David b. 1876 Dirleton, East Lothian
Jane b. 1879 Dirleton, East Lothian
Marion b. 1880 Dirleton, East Lothian
---------
Robert b. 1884 Dirleton, East Lothian
Catherine b. 1887 Dirleton, East Lothian

Daughter Catherine Moffat RITCHIE ended up in NSW and married in 1911. So far I don't know when she arrived and if she came with her family.

Thanks.

Dave

Hello crankypants,

Thank you for that one. Yes please because it will help narrow down the period to search for their arrival in Australia.

Thanks,

Dave
