    Hi again

    James Watt 1851-1948 and Barbara Gatt 1850-1929 had a daughter Mary Ann Gatt Watt 1891-1932 who married George William Watt 1891-1943. Mary and George were my Grandparents. I have all the names of James and Barbara's children if you are interested in them.

    I spent some more time looking at the bigger picture especially to do with your Barbara Gatt b.1 Apr 1850 m. (11 Dec 1875) James Watt b.16 Oct 1851 & could trace that Watt side back to John Watt m. Annie (Ann) Watt but never got any further back than James Gatt m. Jane McKay on the other side...
    However another two found attached to that Gatt family were:-
    (1) John Gatt b.19 Sep 1852 m. (abt 1875) Mary Elizabeth Wiseman b.23 Oct 1854.
    (2) Alexander Gatt b.13 Nov 1854 m. (29 Sep 1887) Margaret Jean Gatt b.27 Sep 1857.
    Any help?
    Been.[/QUOTE]


    sorry, which part of the family do John and Alexander Gatt come from i.e. are they James Gatt and Jane Mckay's children?? if so I have other children to add to that. ?? sorry to bombard you with questions but when I get information I have to get it sorted in my head properly.

    Well olliepolly to try & answer some of your questions:
    (1)
    Your WATT ancestors are not directly mine but with so many connections (i.e. most of Gamrie appears to be related one way or another...) here are a couple of ours that appear close:-

    Brothers:
    WILLIAM WATT b.1 Dec 1762 (your line) JAMES WATT b.14 Dec 1767 (my line)

    Brother & sister (John & Barbara):
    HELEN WATT b.15 Nov 1812 d.6 Mar 1895 (your line)
    Parents JOHN WATT b.23 Apr 1778 m. HELEN CRAIK b.abt 1779

    JOHN WATT b.23 Apr 1778 (your line) BARBARA WATT b.27 Aug 1787 (mine line)

    I also have (to name a few...) WISEMAN, GATT, RITCHIE, OGILVIE, KINNAIRD, ANDERSON, HEPBURN, WILSON within my branches, all from Gamrie.

    (2)
    James and Barbara's children (James Watt 1851-1948 and Barbara Gatt 1850-1929) - yes, I would be interested in that information.
    May I ask what WATT line did your grandfather George William Watt 1891-1943 come from?

    (3)
    John and Alexander Gatt do indeed show up as James Gatt and Jane Mckay's children.

    Been.

    My Grandmotheror Helen Wiseman and she was from Gradenstown. She Married William Dunbar and came to the US. She had a brother Alex Wiseman. I wonder if their is any connection. I am named after my Grandmother my middle name is Helen. I know my older brothers use to go to Scotland with my Gradparents when they were young. I do have some family pics of Helen and William and my Great gGrand parents but only have a first name of my Great Grandmother of Mary Jane. I would be more than happy to copy the pics if there is a family conection if you would like them. Iam also looking for info on the family name of Cowe.
