Hi

My Mum passed away (Parkinsons at only 55yrs old) a couple of years ago and did not know much about her ancestory. She had begun to find out information but did not get far. I would like to finish what she cannot.

hello there cuz how do i private u

I do have a David Edward Medley Smith b c 1841 in Reay or Thurso, shipsmaster who married Jessie Dunnet in 1867 in Wick
However I have their son James born in 1886 and much more likely to have been born in Scotland

Both David and Jessie died in Crosskirk, Thurso 1913 and 1906 respectively.
they had Jessie Laird 1869, Isabella Bain 1871, Helen 1877, David John Smith b? d 1877( the information I have is that e too was born in 1877 but that really doesn't make sense), David Smith b 1877, Donaldina 1881 and James 1886.

I know quite a bit about this family as I researched them when I was looking for my Smith's . there were two headed by John Smith's in Ducansbay.
John Smith married to Janet Corner and
John Smith married to Barbara Murray.
David is descended from the 1st couple while my ancestors were the second one.

If you have some reason to think this is the correct couple I can let you have the information I do have.

Part of my ancestry is John Smith and Janet Corner via daughter Margaret and I've gone sideways a bit...so maybe I can add to Mamie's info for you. James was definitely born in Thurso, though.
