Hello,
I am researching my Sutherland ancestry and my line includes a John and Esther Sutherland married in Latheron 26 Jul 1799 (I think). There are several John and Esther Sutherlands in and around Latheron at the same time, having children with some of the same names. Very hard to find the right John and Esther. My relationship is through their son Alexander born 1811 (married Catherine Henderson 18 May 1828). According to my records so far, I have John and Esther having six children; Catherine b.1801, Andrew b.1803, Elizabeth b.1809, Alexander b.1811, Ann b.1812 and isabella b.1818. The only child I am sure of is Alexander born 1811, and died from a fractured skull in 1882. His death record lists John Sutherland and Esther (m.s. Sutherland) as his parents. Does anyone have a connection to this John and Esther and can confirm their children names or any information? Thanks so much ;-)
