Hi,

I am interested in hearing from anyone with HALLIDAYs from Lochrutton or Urr in Kirkcudbrightshire or Cardenden or Auchterderran in Fife. Other areas in Kirkcudbrightshire that my Hallidays may have came from are Troqueer and New Abbey. The Kirkcudbrightshire Hallidays were farmers, and the Cardenden/Auchterderran Hallidays were a branch of the Hallidays from Lochrutton - some of them became coal miners.

The earliest Hallidays I have are ROBERT (b.1777) and SARAH HALLIDAY (b.1781). Popular names amongst my Hallidays (and probably every other family on the planet!) are ROBERT, JOHN, JAMES, WILLIAM, GEORGE, SARAH, JANE, JANET, JESSIE, ELISABETH and MARY.

Other surnames married to my HALLIDAYS are ANDERSON, FARISH, BLACK, RICHARDSON, WILSON, KERR, LAURIE, SHARPE, CARSON, McCAIG, CHAPPEL, GILLIES, KEIR, HAUGH AND JAMIESON - there is also a McCRAE that I know is connected, but am not sure how yet.

Some names of the farms that various Hallidays and their spouses came from are: Slacks, Bogrie, Mosside, Whiteyard, Under The Brae, Barfil, Little MIlton, Fell, Meikle Kirkland, Durhamhill, Gatehouse, Dinnance, Senwick, Moat - there are probably many others that I can't think of offhand.

I would really like to hear from anyone who is interested......I only started my family research a few months ago, and I have alot of information, but have many branchs unexplored - I have 58 Hallidays (and their spouses/families) in my tree, and growing, and am most interested in finding out more about the Hallidays in particular, but also any of the other names connected to my Hallidays.

I've never posted to this forum before, so I apologise if my post isn't keeping within the rules! I am more than happy to share any information I have - if anyone would like to know more, just let me know.

Regards,
Elaine HALLIDAY
