Jane Rintoul & Isabella Stevens BAILLIE, sisters born Glasgow

VTinOZ — 2011-07-02 03:02:44Z

Hi everyone,
I'm searching for any family, connections, or information about Jane, b.1899 & Isabella, b.1905, daughters of Robert Gardner BAILLIE & Catherine Binnie REID (sister of my Gt Grandfather) born at Firhill Rd, Glasgow.
Jane was a retired legal secretary when she died at Queen Alexandra Hospital, Portsmouth, Hampshire in 1994. Her usual address was Carlisle Rd, Southsea, Hampshire.
The informant on her death certificate was her niece, Isobel Catherine BIRCH of Norfolk St, Southsea.
I believe Isobel's mother must be Isabella Stevens BAILLIE who married Bhoja Ram KATARIYA or KATARYA, engineering student, at Govan, Glasgow in Dec 1926. Isabella died Glasgow, in 1941 as Isabella Stevens KAYE wife of John KAYE, civil engineer. Her sister Jane was the informant. Perhaps her husband had changed his name from KATARIYA to KAYE, I don't know.
Isobel Catherine KATARIYA was born in Glasgow 1927. I haven't found her marriage to BIRCH as yet.
Any help will be much appreciated.
Regards, Vicki

Hello Noel
I am trying to find Henry John Rex Bailie, whose mother was Henrietta Aspeling. She died giving birth and he was brought up by his grandparents in Queenstown. I realise the spelling is a little different but do not set too much store in spelling as I have found some Very strange things. Could we perhaps be looking at the same family? I would be happy to share any information I have with you.

George Bell Baillie - Mary nee Birse

shereebaillie1987 — 2011-02-18 16:59:48Z

I'm a descendant of George Bell Baillie 1835 - 1911 of Concrete Cottages, Russell Street, Arbroth, Scotland. First Marriage Mary Birse side.

My father Terry Baillie has the family farm named Lochfyne at Lipson, South Australia named after the boat they travelled to Australia on.

I have gathered this so far: Father/sons line

1708 James BAILLIE - Agnes Miller
1743 John BAILLIE - Jean Shanks
1790 Robert BAILLIE - Barbara Cothill

sailed to Australia on Lochfyne from Scotland
1843 George Bell BAILLIE - Mary Birse **
1858 George Stewart BAILLIE - Jane Miller
1888 Bert BAILLIE - Edith Brougham
Geoffrey BAILLIE - Audrey Maud Boundey
Terry Wayne BAILLIE - Jenine Marie Docking
Sheree Louise Baillie (daughter of terry and jenine)
Reece Lee Baillie my little brother

Any information, photos regarding George Bell Baillie and those brother and sisters that didn't sail to Australia woukld be helpful. Our records don't show any information on George Bell's sister Kitty Baillie, Agnes Baillie or Jessie Baillie or John Baillie married Jessie McNab - children Janet, John and Male?? unknown.

Thank you

Re: James Baillie of Nether Town Balgillo, Angus

I have a William Baillie who was born at Nether Balgillo on 7 June 1728 whose father was James Baillie. William married Katharine Gall at Tannadice on 9 August 1758.

James was my 5 x GG Grandfather but I cannot make a definitive connection to your James Baillie nor the family members you mention therefore the only link at the moment is Nether Balgillo.

I woukd be interested to learn if you can make the connection.

Re: IvyOliver

debpincher — 2011-01-21 06:47:48Z

Wow It does look like we have the same person here. If we do have, my nan never knew any of this. She always wanted to know her father's name but her mother would never tell her.

My nan died aged 80 in 1999 - she was a really lovely person. We saw her every day when we were children and she never moved far from my mom. My mom and her grandma were very close - how strange families are - if she wasn't really her grandma.

Do you have any more details?

We always tried to find out about my nan's father but never expected her mother to not be her mother - although until she was a teenager she believed her gran to be her mother.

We have her birth cert but there is no real info on it - other than it took over a month to register.

I have loads of photos and one of her when she was about 18 months old.

Please could you use my e-mail: debpincher@hotmail.co.uk if you want to get in touch again rather than this site which is public.

Thank you for getting in touch - what a twist to the tale!

Re: IvyOliver

debpincher — 2011-01-17 21:11:27Z

I have just looked at my tree which may not be totally accurate!! I haven't looked in ages and have forgotten most of it. I do have Walter Self and Ethel Oliver in there (don't know where I got info from - several year's ago probably.
I have Ethel's parents as Richard Oliver and Elizabeth Hart. Richard was the brother of John Thomas Oliver, my nan's grandad.
Their parents were Edward Oliver and Alicia Oakey (my nan's middle name was Alicia so there is a connection).

I have Ethel born in 1902 which could make it feasible for her to have had a child in 1918?!

My nan always lived with her grandparents/mother (Margaret) as a child.

Re: Ivy Oliver

debpincher — 2011-01-17 20:55:08Z

Hi there. Ivy's mom was Margaret Oliver. This is very interesting - please can you tell me why you think you are related? Is it through Ivy's dad?? We don't know who he was - although I believe she met him several times when she was very young and he wanted to marry Margaret. Margaret came from Brownhills, Staffs. She died in 1977. She married a Frank Woodhouse in 1921. Does that help?

If you think there might be a connection here, please can you get in touch again. Who were your mother's parents? Margaret Oliver's were a John Thomas Oliver and Margaret Bevan.

Until Ivy was a teenager, she believed her nan (Margert Bevan) to have been her mother but the truth came out when her younger sister Jean (really Esme)found love letters to her mother from Ivy's father. Jean is still alive but says she can't remember Ivy's father's name - which seems a bit strange as she is still very alert, etc. At one point she said possibly Dewsbury.

I do not know much about the Baillie History (I have recently decided to start a family tree and trace back my roots.

I am an South African born Baillie (Marc), I am currently 31 years of age. If I understand correctly my Grandfather or Great grandfather (His name was Frederik James Baillie and fought in several countries during the wars) came to South Africa from Scotland, I also know about Allen John Baillie which was one of his brothers.

My father's name is Martin Baillie (He grew up in old Rhodesia)with 3 Brothers Allen, Eric and Neville Baillie.

This is all the information that I currently have, but will start doing some more research Shortly.
I do not know if this information might be of any use.

I am looking for the birth record of Martha Ellis Baillie, My Gt. Grandmother.
Born from 1835-44 in County Tyrone according to the 1851, 1891 and 1901 census.
Her age at marriage and death conflict with her age (16) in the 1851 census.

Has anyone has any suggestions for ways of finding the records, or can find them for me please.
She married William Hair in Scotland.
His parents were John Hair & Margaret McKerrow.

Hi
I came across your posting whilst browsing online for details of my grandmother. I don't know whether you are still researching this family. My grandmother's name was Annie Young Baillie she was born in 1906. Her father was Robert Baillie but I don't think he can have been the Robert Baillie listed in your post as I think he would be too old. Her mother was Jean Sharp(e). Do you know if the Robert Baillie you list also had a son called Robert?
