Hi Graham,
I know little about the couple but I have a copy of what I found on the Midlothian, I will try and paste into the reply.
There was two Ann Gillies on board and ours married a Robert Somerville in Sydney.
Tried to paste it but it wont go, so if you contact me at "dgmason@optusnet.com.au" I will send it to you.
Regards
David

Good day David,
I think my partner Helen must be related to you. She is descended from John McDonald who married Anne Gillies in 1841 - at the time they both lived at "Dunmore" near Morpeth. I assume Anne must be the daughter of Donald Gillies who I found listed as a family head from the Midlothian in 1837. I wonder if you know anything about this couple. Also, can you give me a lead to find a passenger list from the Midlothian in 1837?

Hi Jim
I found Alex on the census, with his mother Ann and two nephews?

There was an Alex born 25 may 1828 in Dalkeith his parents were Alexander Gillies and Agnes Park, as far as i know they are not related to my line, but they could be. do you know anything more on his niece Margaret from Largo there are 4 Margarets died in Largo 2 are related to me, do you have any idea when she was born year?

1 margaret died 1876 she was married to a mr Allan, related to me.
2 Margaret died 1891 aged 4 so cant be her.
3 Margaret died 1925 nee Methven, related to me.
4 Margaret died 1950 aged 90 could this be her?

The Gillies's from Largo are connected to Alexander Selkirk, the real life Robinson Crusoe, he was my 7 times Great uncle, if there is a Largo connection its possible we are connected.

Colin

There are a lot of Gillies headstones in the cemetery, quite nice ones as well. its a nice church yard i took some pics of the Selkirk one as well. the next time you are in Largo. the cemetery is worth a vist.

Re: Ann Gillies from Applecross, Ross & Cromarty, Scotland

HGARLEB — 2009-03-24 14:28:41Z

I am descended from Annabella Gillies of Applecross. I believe she married Peter McKenzie of Applecross and Plockton on 11 October 1846 at Barony, Lanark, Scotland, after which the two went to Canada. Annabelle and Peter lived in the area of Huron and Bruce Counties, Ontario, where Peter was a ship captain on the Great Lakes. He died in 1865 of unknown causes, she died in 1893. This Annabella is a sister of Anne, apparently, and five years younger than Anne. Annabella was born in 1826 whereas Anne was apparently born in 1821, as you have indicated. Both Peter McKenzie and Annabella (nee Gillies) are buried at Lochalsh Cemetery, Huron County, Ontario, Canada, where their family headstone indicates, "Capt. Peter McKenzie, 1820-1865, His Wife, Annabella Gillies, 1826-1893, Natives of Ross-shire, Scotland," along with some younger family members named.

According to an 1841 Scottish census, John Gillies had the following children, he being 65 at the time: Rodrick, age 30; Kenneth, 25; Anne, 20; Annabella, 15; John, 15 and Isabela, 22. John's wife is not mentioned on that census where he is listed as a farmer and boat carpenter.

I'm assuming I have the right info here and hope I haven't steered you wrong in any way. The names and dates, as well as family tradition seem right, so hopefully I'm on track.

He was a soldier in the army and fought in WW2. He had a sister called Hannah Gillies who married a William Mclennon.

Martin,

I have started a new Gillies search for a friend of my mother-in-law who goes to the same church. The information I have is:

John Cecil Gillies (believed to be born in Canada)
his son
Peter John Gillies - born 1969

I believe John's wife and Peter's mother is Carol Fay Severson.

Somewhere in the family record is an Ivadell (I believe to be Peter's grandmother and John's mother).

I believe John's father was born in Scotalnd and moved his family to Canada.

As I mentioned I have started this research.

Do any of these names sound familiar to you?

They settled in Woodend Vic with their children.
So far I havnt found any in NZ but do have a bit of information on the Geelong Terang Noorat families.

mackaysl — 2009-03-24 16:07:10Z

Hi Nancy,

I'm sorry for not responding sooner, I either didn't get or didn't see the notice that you had posted a response. The problem with the people in Wester Ross is that they all had the same names! I don't know how they kept each other straight.

I will go back through my family notes to see if I have anything that may be of help. We did visit Lochcarron in 1999 and met some of my father's cousins a few times removed. There are a lot of Mackay's in the area. I know that the name Roderick isn't in my line, but I do remember seeing census records that included the name Roderick Mackay, I'll have to see if I have copies of any of those pages.

My grandfather and his brother didn't leave Scotland for the US until about 1900, so your ancestor imigrated earlier than mine did.

Re: Ann Gillies from Applecross, Ross & Cromarty, Scotland

mackaysl — 2009-03-24 15:57:24Z

Thank you so much for sharing your information. It's very difficult for me to tell if a person I see listed in the census or OPR's available on-line is the one I'm looking for or not. I've been told the OPR's are incomplete and with census records, you don't always find the right record the first time you search. I don't think I've found the 1841 census record you mentioned but I'll look again. Perhaps your ancestor's sister Anne is the person I'm seeking. It will require some more research.

I really need to save up for another trip to Scotland where I can do some research in person. Unfortunately the one time I was there the genealogy bug hadn't yet bit me so I spent time looking at the buildings and scenery rather haunting record repositories.

Re: Ann Gillies from Applecross, Ross & Cromarty, Scotland

nannykershner — 2008-12-27 00:07:30Z

I have nothing about Anne Gillies, but I think you have information I need. My great grandfather was Donald Henry Mackay, son of Donald and Margaret Mackay (maiden name unknown). They had 5 sons, Donald Henry (b. 1807), Duncan, Neil, Roderick and John. They had 3 daughters, one named Annabelle. They owned the Strome Hotel until the 1830's. Donald Mackay sold it because he felt it was not a good place for his children. Donald Henry went to live in America in 1840. Duncan had a son Donald and daughter Mary. This information was in letters written in 1939 by Christina Mackay Mackenzie. Her daughter Mary Christina married a MacDonald. She named her son Colum. He lives in the USA.

Re: James Gillies, pastry baker,born Glasgow 1868 or 1856

Yes, could be. Thank you!! In the 1861 census`I found James Gillies with his mother Catrine and his father John, who also was a baker. I cannot find James or the family in the census`from 1871, but in 1891 I found James Gillies with his spouse named Margaret. Still living in Renfrewshire, and James`occupation is Pastry baker.....

I have problems following him any further, and to find information that proves that he is my great grandfather. I have searched in passenger lists, but maybee I have to find crew lists or information from the merchant navy.

James Gillies, pastry baker,born Glasgow 1868 or 1856

jeagill — 2009-04-01 21:31:57Z

Iam looking for my great grandfather James Gillies. He was born in Glasgow. Some papers tell me that he was born 22. April 1868, his memorandums shows that he worked as a pastry baker 1881 Dundee, 1888-1889 in Ayr, 1892 in Glasgow. He emmigrated to Cape Town in 1893. I dont find him in the scottish census`with this birthdate, so it could be wrong.

Some other papers (seamans certificate) tell that he was born about 1856 (he also worked as a baker and confectioner on ships).
