Crothers/Crowther

Post by petercr » Sun Oct 07, 2007 11:55 pm

My GGGrandfather and his sisters may have been born in Scotland, possibly Ayrshire. Isaac Crothers/Crowther was born around 1833, his sister Susanna Crothers/Crowther was born around 1828, and Elizabeth Crothers/Crowther was born around 1830. Their Father was Robert Crothers/Crowther and Mother was Elizabeth. If anyone has any relevant info from Parish records I would be very greatful.

regards

Peter

Hi Peter

Welcome to Talking Scot. [talkingscot] [scotland-flag]

Where did you find the Crowther/Crothers offspring i.e where did they end up and what information do you have about them?

The only birth on the IGI is an Isabella Crothers in 1851 in Penningham, Wigtownshire to Robert Crothers and Elizabeth Byron. This seems a bit late to be one of yours.

Why do you think they were born in Ayrshire?

Hi Peter,

From the IGI:

ROBERT CARRUTHERS m ELIZABETH BYRON 29 Mar 1829 Penningham, Wigton.

This couple has a few more children listed on the IGI :

ROBERT b 17 Nov 1833 Penninghame, Wigtown
MARY b 04 Oct 1835 Girvan, Ayrshire
JANE b 28 Oct 1838 Penninghame, Wigtown
ROBERT b 25 Apr 1841 Penningahme, Wigtown
ANDREW BELL b 26 Mar 1843 Penninghame, Wigtown
ELIZABETH b 05 Sep 1847 Penninghame, Wigtown.

They marry in 1829 and the first child is not recorded until 1833, so maybe this could be your lot? Although they do have an Elizabeth, but she is born 17 years too late to be your Elizabeth.

Anyway, Perhaps you should also include the variant Carruthers in your searches.

Lochiel, McKinlay, McGibbon/McCubbin, Cunningham, McDougall, Burnside - Lanarkshire->Ayrshire.
Hay, Hannah, - Kirkcudbright.
McIntosh, McQuaters/McWatters, White, - Kilmarnock
Murdoch, Hope, McMillan - Muirkirk

Hi Peter, I know your post was 2007 but hope you’re still using this site. We may be seeking the same family. I’m looking for an an Elizabeth Crothers/s/Crowther/Cruddas/Carruthers - born C1830 in Scotland (she states Glasgow on the census) - she died Elizabeth Foxton, in Whitby in 1884. Have been unable to find birth or marriage details for her. Fingers crossed.
