James Marchbank Sr.1
M, #514
| Birth* | James Marchbank Sr. was born in Annan, Dumfriesshire, Scotland; birth records lost at sea.1 |
| Biographical Note* |
Islanders' Roots Discovered -
"A British researcher has found some traces of the Scottish ancestors of the Marchbank branch of the family in Prince Edward Island. Duncan Adamson, who was engaged by Roger Marjoribanks, and financed by the Research Fund, has found the baptismal record of David Marchbank, the first-born son of James Marchbank and Mary Walker who came to the Island in 1825 from Annandale in Dumfriesshire. The records of the parish of Ruthwell show that David was born to James Marchbank and Mary Walker on January 20, 1813 on a small and remote farm called Twathats, about half a kilometre from Carrutherston in Dumfriesshire. Mary was 21 at the time of David's birth."
"Some time after David's birth, the family moved, presumably to the farm called "Outermains," but, in any case, to the Annandale district where their second son, Samuel, was born. David died young, before James, Mary and Samuel immigrated to Prince Edward Island."
"Nothing more is known for certain about James except that he had left the Twathats farm and the parish of Ruthwell and moved to Annandale before their second son, Samuel, was born. After studying Mr. Adamson's evidence, Roger believes that it was likely that James came from Johnstone parish, just south of the Marjoribanks home parish of Kirkpatrick-Juxta, and that he was born in the early or middle 1780s. His father may well have been Samuel Marchbank of Greenrig in that parish. By 1812 James had moved to Cummertrees parish where he met and married Mary Walker, the third daughter and fourth child of David Walker and Margaret Hetherton. Mary was born on Wintersheugh farm but her family later moved to Priestside in the same parish. Most of the evidence suggests that Outermains was a farm on the river Annan on the estate belonging to Hoddam Castle and is now known as Hoddam Mains. There was an Outermains farm on the estate at least until 1804."
