1841 is a problem for John Tait as I can't find a baptism and I don't have his parents.

More children here but no real help.

Death 1876 TAIT MARY [TEMPLETON] 48 RAMSAY 649/ 68 Lesmahagow

Mary's parents:

Marriage 11/04/1806 TEMPLETON THOMAS - JANE RAMSAY/FR148 660/ 10 132 Wiston and Roberton

I have nothing on them after that.

1st daughter Jeannie/Jane - fits

2nd daughter Grace - possibly John Tait's mother

1st son James - possibly John Tait's father

Thanks emeltee.

So interconnected. That could be Robertson, cut short by length of field. Or it could be just Robert.
