HOW TO USE THIS PAGE!!
Simply use your browsers's 'find in page' or 'search page' ability to search for names
or surnames that you might be interested in.
MOST of the records on this page at this time are prior to 1750.
This page contains a mish-mash of transcriptions that I have done.
If you would like to try transcribing some I couldn't quite read,
just let me know and I'll direct you to any.
If you have more info or want more info please send email to me at
Tammy ancestry@ripandrevmedia.ca
*First few paragraphs are me writing stuff down as I try to get started, after that, it's just lists of names and transcriptions. I hope you find something useful :)
I thought starting at the beginning of the records would help build a snapshot of Liberton and might make it easier
to learn more about the families and connect them etc..
families that I don't find connections to, will be placed, more side by side, with their own trees,
instead of just in a tree formation.
Already I have a little problem.
I thought I would start with a family close to the beginning of my records that had a lot of people in it.
So I picked a family that had children over a 25 year period.
Then on a whim, I thought I would see if I could find David's parents:

http://trees.ancestry.com/tree/21914145/person/1152903197
I searched in all my various areas, and sure enough there was a suggested set of parents
in the igi
http://tinyurl.com/DavidborntoGeorge
Issues, well the wifes name is Janat Ferguson in the member submitted record.
I searched all over and could not find any marriage or kids for a david mitchell and janet ferguson.
So I think that who ever submitted this, has the wifes name incorrect, as it probably is Christian Ferguson, the on in our tree.
Next issue with the member submitted record.
If we go by the birth of David born to George and Marion Brown, he would be 16 at the time of his first childs birth.
Not unheard of for sure. BUT, there is not a George or a Marion found as one of the children of Christian Ferguson and David Mitchell.
Suspicious at best.
Next issue.
I found two other appropriate births
01/May/1600 MYTCHELL DAVID WILLIAM MYTCHELL/MARGARET RYCHESOUN FR15

28/Apr/1601 MYTCHELL DAVID DAVID MYTCHELL/ FR107
M EDINBURGH EDINBURGH CITY CITY/MIDLOTHIAN 685/01 0010 0193
The first David transcription:
William Mitchell & Margaret Rytherdson an infant baptized David.
Wits David bytonn? David Ribasson (Rithson) - James Brichannon
The first David born 1600 has the following siblings (could be more)
MYTCHELL, Jonet Christening
Gender: Female
Christening Date: 8 Jun 1602 Recorded in: South Leith, Midlothian, Scotland
Father: William MYTCHELL
Mother: Margaret RYCHARDSOUN
MYTCHELL, William Christening
Gender: Male
Christening Date: 16 Jun 1605 Recorded in: South Leith, Midlothian, Scotland
Father: William MYTCHELL
Mother: Margaret RYCHISOUN
The second David Mitchell has no sibs that I can find. No real marriage for a father to find either, so basically no info.
Comments:
William is the first born son's name. Then Adam, and Adam is repeated again.
No Georges, no Margarets, no Marions.
Then we have an un-named mother.
There are too many variables at this level.
