Loudoun Lambies (also Galston)
Help! I'm new to family research and have reached a big brickwall with my Lambies in Loudoun.
My ancestor is John Lambie and I know for sure he married Isobell Campbell in Loudoun on 4.12.1778. I'm guessing he is the John Lambie who was born in Loudoun on 27.6.1748 - but - how do you tell for sure? His father may have been a George Lambie but there were 3 different Georges married in Loudoun between 1712 and 1739 and the OPR list only the father George, no mother. Of course, he may have been married in Galston (no Georges were born in Loudoun at right time)- another 3 George marriages in Galston in same period. Can anyone help?
