I have a group of four Jamiesons born in Ireland between 1819-1830. I think they are related some brothers others I know are cousins, but I can't find any link. Any advice or help would be appreciated. I have Lachlan Jamieson (1819) in Ireland parents are Alexander Jamieson and Bridget McKendrick. He married Catherine McCurdy. Living in one house in 1851 at Black Bull Close Port Glasgow(where Lachlan shows up in 1861) I have Michael Jamieson who married Eliza McLaran in Ireland in 1846. Thanks to help from someone on here I know this Michael Jamieson's parents are Alexander Jamieson and Helen McNeil. Living at the house with them are Michael Jamieson and Alexander Jamieson, both born Ireland in 1830, listed as the older Michael's cousins. Michael born in 1830 dies in 1902, at my gg grandmother's Mary Jamieson home (Lachlan's daughter) and some of her children. On his death record one of Mary's brother's signs off as being Michael's step brother. This Michael's parents are listed as Lauchlan and the mother just as Jamieson, however on his marriage record to Bridget Keenan his mother is listed as Sarah McByrde. The Alexander listed as being a cousin in 1851, I haven't been able to find. I know this is confusing, it has my head spinning at times, but any help would be appreciated.
Thanks again,
Cathy
