Seeking marriage info on John McCUTCHEON (could be McHUTCHON) and Janet McEWAN, who immigrated to Scotland after their marriage; to County Ayr. The 1851 Scottish census lists this family:
John McHUTCHON 45 b. Dawn, Ireland
wife Janet 40 b. Dawn, Ireland
James 12 b. Ayr,Scotland
Mary 6 b. Wigtonshire, Scotland
John 4 b. Wigtonshire, Scotland
Samuel 1 b. Ayr,Scotland
John McHUTCHON's death record on May 9, 1873 in Ayr suggests his birth year was 1805, that his wife Janet's surname was McEWAN; and that his father was named John. Since first born son James (my great great grandfather) was born abt. 1839, I gather the marriage occurred abt. 1837/38. The middle name of James was KENNEDY; this may have been the surname of his grandmother! By the death of son James, the spelling of the surname was McCUTCHEON. Any help would be appreciated!
