13 Feb 2006: Hi,
Regarding Lewis or Lowis Gregg, daughter of James Gregg and Lewis Brown who married James Sym, her death is 26th August 1860, not 1880 as you have it on the site. I extracted it while trawling through the years 1855-1875 for Ayrshire at our local Family History centre. I've just verified the year by the index of deaths on Scotlandspeople. I knew 1880 could not be correct as the place of burial was stated and if I remember correctly 1860 was the last year that this was done The notes I made at the time read Widow of a physician .. Sym Dies Wellingford Cottage Ayr of general paralysis, buried New Kilpatrick, informant Andrew Sym brother in law, father James Gregg writer mother Lewis Brown both deceased
I mistakenly thought I had a link to this family but as the child Lilias born 1810 died unmarried I need another Lilias Gregg, who unfortunately seems to have died pre 1855. I will keep them on my file and add a link to your website, Marna Fielding.

13 Feb 2006: Thanks to your website I have located my Lilias Gregg [P238]. I have information on her descendants and her spouse William Love's second marriage if you are interested,
