I am descended fron their daughter Elizabeth Broomfield Laidlaw nee Middlemass. All their children as in Scottish tradition had their mothers maiden name as their middle name. <br>I have other information if interested. If you know anything else about the Middlemasses I would be interested?<br>Pauline 2004-04-25 04:55:42Z finkpauline1 http://boards.ancestry.com/surnames.midburn/1.1/mb.ashx http://boards.ancestry.com/surnames.midburn/1/mb.ashx Looking for information regarding my great<br>grandmother JANEY GRAY (MIDBURN)<br><br>I believe her husband was James Broomfield Middlemas<br><br>The 1881 Census<br>Dwelling: Hamlet of Ramano Bridge, Scotland<br>Census Place: Newlands, Peeble, Scotland<br><br>James Middlemass born Hawick, Roxburgh<br>He was baptized 21 Apr. 1820<br><br>Janet was born 1837 Channelkirk, Berwick<br><br>They had seven children:<br>John not in Census went to New York<br>William Yetholm Roxburgh 1867<br>Marion Drysdale, Dumfries 1868 <br>Alexander Drysdale, Dumfries 1870 <br>Robert Newlands, Peeble 1873 <br>Bella Newlands, Peeble 1876<br>James Newlands, Peeble 1878 2000-11-30 17:28:11Z http://boards.ancestry.com/surnames.midburn/1/mb.ashx
