Andrew Lindores, Son of Alexander Lindores Born circa 1885 married to my Great Aunt Janet Douglas daughter of James Douglas & Elizabeth Douglas, Nee Kinnaird from Kirkconnel, Dumfriesshire. They were married by the Rev Dr Paul of Grange Parish Church, Edinburgh at 63 Fountainhall Road, Edinburgh, on 23rd October 1913 Any information would be appreciated.

Hi John,
I dont know if there is any relationship here but I have just found out that my mothers great-grandmothers Maiden name was Lindores. As this is not a common name I thought I would contact you to see if there is any connection. The name I have is Margaret Lindores who was born around 1853. She married James Anderson, A fisherman from Ayton in Berwick and had five children as far as I know. Could this be connected? Martin

Hi Martin,
This could possibly be a connection, I know my Andrew Lindores gave his pre-marital address as Upper Nesbit, Roxburgh, Roxburghshire, but I don't know where he was born or know of any siblings.
My apoligies for the delay in answering.
Regards John
