Descendants of John Davidson
Generation 1
1.
John Davidson-1 was born
on 31 May 1805 in Kilgrammie, Dailly Parish, Ayrshire, Scotland.
He died
on 12 Jul 1876 in Kirkoswald, Dailly Parish,
Ayrshire, Scotland.
Notes for John Davidson:
General Notes:
OPR Dailly - John son lawful to John Davidson
collier at Kilgramy by Mary Stewart his wife born
31May and baptized 2Jun1805.
Moved to Drummuck Farm about 1835.
Occupation Dec1839 farmer.
Had 12 children. Was at Drummuck Farm,
Kirkoswald in 1841 and 1851
From Anne Anderson Dec 2005. According to John
Davidson born: 1805 (my great great grandfather
from Drummuck farm born at Kilgrammie Dailly
Parish, he said that his grandfather was James
Davidson born: 1738 son of John Davidson and
Marion McConachie and that his father John
Davidson b: 1778 was the uncle of John Davidson
(Souter Johnnie) the cobbler from Kirkoswald and
the brother of Bryce Davidson so that he himself
(James) was a cousin of Souter Johnnie. I checked
the dates of birth for all the family and noted
there was a James Davidson born at Kilgrammie Dailly
Parish 1738.
When the weather improves I am taking my mother
aged 82 years to the Dailly and Kirkoswald area
and to look at the MIs at Dailly and Kirkoswald.
Her grandfather James born 1855 used to tell her
tales of the area as he lived with her family
when he was elderly and he had always told the family of
the connection to Souter Johnnie, but in these
days there was not the same access to information as
there is nowadays. My Great Uncle used to go to
relatives all over the area and ask them all that they
knew so we had a beginning and my elderly aunt
before she died had collected some information
that has become so helpful for me to carry this
out for my mother
Drummuck Farm John Davidson b1805 signed a 19
year lease expiry 1877.78 signed Nov 1859. I
have two death dates for him but I think the
correct date was 1876 12 July or 10 Oct 1879 ...do you
have the correct date Fraser? Well the rent was
£100 per year and although this was the lease for
the next 19 years I have the rent books from
1840 so this would be the second lease signed. I have
1840 - 1875.
Ten years later 1884 my grandfather James sold
up and there was a Roup Sale and all the items on
the farm listed. (I have that) That was in 1884.
We understood that the reason that my great
grandfather had to sell was that he had lost
three fingers in a farming accident (sheep sheering) and
could not fully work the farm as the other
brothers had left John, to Australia, Hugh was a jeweler in
Ayr and William born 1853 worked on the farm and
I'm not sure about Archibald
Janet "Jessie" Fergusson
daughter of James Fergusson and
Agnes Aird was born about 1816 in
Maybole, Ayrshire, Scotland. She died on 05 Apr
1892 in Ladybank, Cottage, Kirkoswald, Ayrshire,
Scotland.
John Davidson and Janet "Jessie" Fergusson were
married on 23 Dec 1839 in Bargany Mains, Dailly
Parish, Ayrshire, Scotland. They had the

Generation 1 (con't)
General Notes:
Margaret Davidson was born on the 22nd November
1841 and baptised on the 1st
December 1841 at Kirkoswald.
There is no record of death that I can find of
Margaret in the Old Parish Records after this
date, but I know that she died in infancy, as
one year and three months after Margaret's
baptism a sister was born on the 23rd February
1843 also named Margaret. Burial records
and Monumental inscriptions may bring her to
light. Also on the birth certificate of my
Great grandfather James Davidson it states that
he James is the last child born to John
Davidson and Janet Fergusson it is stated that
he James was the 11th child, 5 boys, 5 girls
living one girl dead. So we can say that
Margaret was dead by 1843. Also local
Newspapers still have to be checked for her.
Since writing this Sam I have found a death of a
Margaret Davidson in the Parish of Dailly
April 1842.

John Davidson-2 (John-1)
was born on 08 Sep 1839 in Dailly Ayrshire Scotland.
Notes for John Davidson:
General Notes:
John Davidson was born on the 8th September 1838
at Bargany Mains in the parish of Dailly. John
was the natural, eldest of Janet Fergusson a
year before Janet married John Davidson at Bargany
Mains, Dailly. John did not appear in the 1841
Census at Drummuck Farm, Kirkoswald, but in the
following Census of 1851 he is noted as aged 12
years and attending school. In the 1861 Census he
is aged 22 years. It may have been an error in
the 1841 Census omitting John's name or he may
have been being looked after by a relative.
Aged 25 years and working and residing at
Drummuck Farm, John married on the 25th January 1864
Eliza Kerr from Ayr, aged 24 years who was
employed as a Domestic Servant. Eliza was the daughter
of William Kerr a Railway Goods Foreman and
Sarah McKnight. At the time of John and Eliza's
wedding Eliza's mother was deceased.
They did not appear in the 1871 Census so we can
presume by that date they had moved to Australia
as noted in the Will of John's father 19th
October 1876. John and Eliza settled on the North East of
Australia at Rock Hampton, Queensland. They had
a daughter Elizabeth Davidson who is believed to
have been born either on the passage over to
Australia on board ship or soon after and then a son
James Kerr Davidson who was born 1867.
James when he married had a son Colin Andrew
Roderick Davidson and James had a son Allan John
Davidson.
John is mentioned in his father's Will in 1876
and was bequeathed £1 Sterling. John was mentioned
in the Lease of Drummuck Farm as noted earlier
so there had been a serious rift between John and
his father and that may have been one of the
reasons why he left for Australia.
Emigrated to Australia soon after marriage.
Eliz Kerr
daughter of William Kerr and Sarah
McKnight was born in 1840 in Ayr, Ayrshire, Scotland.
John Davidson and Eliz Kerr met. They had the
following children:
i.
Elizabeth Davidson.
8. ii.
James Kerr Davidson
was born about 1867 in Rock Hampton, Queensland, Australia.

Mary Davidson-2 (John-1)
was born on 20 Jul 1840 in Drummuck Farm, Kirkoswald, Ayrshire,
Scotland. She died on 12 May 1861 in Hurlford,
Kilmarnock, Ayrshire, Scotland.
Notes for Mary Davidson:
General Notes:
Mary Davidson was born on the 20th July 1840 at
Drummuck Farm and baptised on the 28th July
1840 at Kirkoswald. Mary was the eldest daughter
and in the 1841 Census was aged 10 months and
in the 1851 Census aged 10 years. On the 31st
December 1856 at Kirkoswald, Mary aged just 16
years gave birth to a natural daughter who she
named Janet after her own mother Janet Fergusson.
On the 28th January 1859 she married Archibald
Scobie at Kirkoswald and two days later on the 30th

Archibald Scobie was born on the 20th August
1836 and baptised on the 24th August 1836 at
Kilgrammie in the parish of Dailly. He was the
son of John Scobie born 1797 and Elizabeth McBlain
born 1801 both from Dailly. Archibald's parents
were married at Dailly on the 3rd May 1822.
Archibald and Mary moved to Hurlford outside
Kilmarnock, Ayrshire and lived at Gilmours Square in
the village of Hurlford in the parish of
Riccarton. In the 1861 Census Archibald was recorded as
occupation of Coal Miner aged 23 years. Mary
aged 21, Janet aged 4 years and Elizabeth aged 2

occupation of Coal Miner aged 23 years. Mary
aged 21, Janet aged 4 years and Elizabeth aged 2
years. The 1861 Census was taken on the 8th
April, a week or two following the Census Mary took ill
and contracted Small Pox and Laryngitis which
she had for three weeks. John McLatchy MD saw
Mary on the 11th May. The following morning at
7.45am on the 12th May, Mary died.
Janet Scobie, Mary's daughter, was recorded in
the 1871 Census as living with her Grandparents at
Drummuck Farm and although recorded in the
Census as aged 18 years she was only 14 years old.
Elizabeth at that time I believe was still
living with her father Archibald Scobie who had possibly
remarried. When their Grandfather John Davidson
died on the 12th July 1876 they were both left
Legacies, Elizabeth - 5/- Sterling and Janet -
£10 pounds Sterling. I believe that possibly the reason
that Janet received the greater sum was that she
was now on her own and had lived with the family
since 1861 the year of her mother's death
working on the farm. Janet also was left a division of John
Davidson's Estate to be shared equally amongst
four of John Davidson's children, in effect Janet's
aunts and uncles. This would enable Janet to
have a secure start in life. She was aged 20 years.

McBlain was born on 20 Aug 1836 in
Kilgrammie, Dailly Parish, Ayrshire, Scotland.

Notes for John McMurtrie:
General Notes:
On the 27th September 1895 William Bowman died
at Laigh Chapelton at 6am and was
buried at Maybole Cemetery on Wednesday 2nd
October at 2pm. John then ran Laigh
Chapelton Farm and in the 1901 Census was
running the farm aged 31. His mother Helen
was recorded as living at the farm and working
as housekeeper, she was aged 55 years.
There is no record at this point of his father
James McMurtrie who would have been with
the rest of the family. Helen was possibly there
at the farm helping her son John as he
was unmarried.
In later years Helen and James moved to New
Dykes Farm in Prestwick, Ayrshire with their
daughters, Jean (Jessie), Agnes (Nancy), Annie
and Nell (Helen) and son John. They all
worked at the farm having their own particular
chores. Jean (Jessie) went round with the
milk in a pony and trap in Prestwick, Nell died
when she was young at New Dykes. John
went to manage a farm called 'Gilmourbanks' near
Lochmaben, Dumfries and when the
owner of the farm died she left the farm to
John. To help John, his sister Jean (Jessie) left
Prestwick to keep house for him.

On the 18th October 1924 at 5am at New Dykes
Farm aged 78 year. The following year
on the 2nd April 1925 at 9.30pm at New Dykes
Farm at the age 84 years.
After the death of their father New Dykes was
sold and Agnes (Nancy) and Annie joined
Jean (Jessie) at Gilmourbanks. John by this time
had also died. They continued to farm.
Latterly they rented their land to a
neighbouring farmer and just lived on the farm. A
nephew form Lochmaben came to see them regularly
with his little son and daughter.
There was also a nephew who lived in Katrine in
the Trossachs. As Agnes, Annie, Jean
and john never married the nephews could
possibly be either Nell's, William's, James's or
Hugh's sons.....

William Davidson
Notes for William Davidson:
General Notes:
1884 worked on Drummuck farm.
William Davidson was born 26th June and baptised
on the 6th July 1853 at Drummuck Farm,
Kirkoswald. In the 1861 Census it was recorded
that he was aged 6 years and a scholar. In the 1871
Census aged 16 years and 1881 Census aged 27
years.
When William's father John Davidson made his
Will in 1876, John made provision for the balance of
his Estate to be divided between William, Helen,
Hugh, James and Janet Davidson Scobbie, the
daughter of Mary Davidson, after all the
payments were made. William worked on the farm with his
younger brother James until the eventual sale of
Drummuck Farm in 1884.
Six years later William aged 36 years married
Margaret Shennan on the 3rd of June 1890. Margaret
was the daughter of James Shennan a shepherd,
and Agnes McDowell and was born on the 5th April
1859 at Dailly. James Shennan and Agnes McDowall
were married on the 24th November 1837 at
Straiton, Ayrshire.
William and Margaret's wedding took place at

William and Margaret's wedding took place at
Bridge Mill, Girvan. Wedding invitations were sent by a
Mr and Mrs. Shennan to the wedding of their
'sister' Margaret. It was sent to William's brother James.
The invitation was dated 21st May 1890 for the
evening of Tuesday 3rd June 1890 at eight o'clock at
[Brigmill], Girvan. Margaret's family home was
Enoch Farm where her mother was living, her father
James Shennan being deceased. On the marriage
certificate it has Margaret's name as Shinnan and
not Shennan and also William's mother as a
Margaret Fergusson and not Janet Fergusson which
gave me numerous problems while researching.
Margaret Shennan

Notes for James Davidson:
General Notes:
Farmed at Drummuck. The farm was sold in the
1876.The Davidson's had been the tenants there for
about 40 years. Gt. grandfather of Anne Anderson
contacted Dec2005.
When the weather improves I am taking my mother
aged 82 years to the Dailly and Kirkoswald area
and to look at the MIs at Dailly and Kirkoswald.
Her grandfather James born 1855 used to tell her
tales of the area as he lived with her family
when he was elderly and he had always told the family of

before she died had collected some information
that has become so helpful for me to carry this
out for my mother. All the above from Anne Anderson.
Drummuck Farm John Davidson b1805 signed a 19
year lease expiry 1877.78 signed Nov 1859. I
have two death dates for him but i think the
correct date was 187612 July or 10 Oct 1879 ...do you
have the correct date Fraser? Well the rent was
£100 per year and although this was the lease for the
next 19 years i have the rent books from 1840 so
this would be the second lease signed. I have 1840
- 1875.
Ten years later 1884 my grandfather James sold
up and there was a Roup Sale and all the items on
the farm listed. (I have that) That was in 1884.
We understood that the reason that my great
grandfather had to sell was that he had lost
three fingers in a farming accident (sheep sheering) and
could not fully work the farm as the other
brothers had left John to Australia, Hugh was a jeweler in
Ayr and William born 1853 worked on the farm and
I'm not sure about Archibald
As you know Archibald's father John Davidson
died in 1876, five years after Archibald left and married
Betsy. Do you have a copy of the Will of John
Davidson? If not I will send it to you. Jessie, William
and James and two grandaughters of John and
Jessie worked the farm until October 1884. On the
29th October 1884 Drummuck Farm was no longer in
the hands of the family. (The Davidson's were
actually Tenants of the farm, it was owned by
The Duchesse De Coigny from the Bargany Estate)
From there the family moved to Ladybank Cottage
near Kirkoswald. William and James left to get
married and only Jessie and her two
grandaughters stayed there at Ladybank until Jessie died 5th
April 1892 aged 77 years.
James moved with his wife to Newton, Ayr where
my grandmother was born Margaret in 1890.
James at that time was working as a Dairyman.
The following year they moved to Crossburn Farm at
Dundonald, James was employed as an Agricultural
Labourer. They stayed in that area where they

Dundonald, James was employed as an Agricultural
Labourer. They stayed in that area where they
then had John in 1892 then James 1894 and then
William at Irvine. By this time James was recorded
as being a Ploughman. I think it was around this
time that James had his farming accident - he lost
his three fingers on his left hand shearing
sheep and therefore could no longer work on the land. The
family moved to Ardrossan where James worked at
Ardeer Iron Works where he worked until he
retired.
Emily and James lived there until Emily died in
1923 from heart failure and James then moved in with
his daughter Margaret (my grandmother) and her
family until he died in 1941 form pneumonia. He
lived there with the family and my mother (now
aged 83) said that he was a very quiet man, reliving
storied of the farm and his life at Drummuck and
used to sing her to sleep everynight. As youths the
boys (including Archibald I expect) used to walk
down to the Maidens (near Turnberry) and
Crossraegal Abbey to play and possibly do their
courting when they were older !
