Hi everyone
I have a new Baikie problem to be solved
I have a James Baikie b1830 in Dunnet, the son of John Baikie and Isabella Robeson.
While a young man - quoting from his obituary - James served with the 24th Regiment, probably in India. I have now received information that he married Catherine Calder, also of Dunnet, in 1854 .
I need more information on Catherine Calder to confirm if such a marriage took place as a number of future events depend on it.
Sometime before 1864 James immigrated to Australia and married my GGG Aunt Catherine Munro in 1864 in Prahran Victoria. I have so found no sign of a James or Catherine Baikie in the Victorian, NSW and Tasmania online passenger lists or on the list for the Highland and Island Emagration Society list so I assume he first went to South Australia. There is no record in the BMD indexes for Victoria or NSW and Tasmania for a Catherine Baikie/Calder
Does anyone on the list come across a James Baikie and Catherine Calder in their own reserches
Regards
Bill
