I have a William Meek (abt 1795/6-13 Apr 1865) in my tree who married a Ann(e) (Agnes)
Corbet at St Cuthberts on 3 Sep 1827. In Scotland they had four children:
Robert (1828-1828)
Clementina (1830-1830)
William (1831-1834)
Clementina (1835-1869)
Wm and Ann emigrated to Ontario, Canada around 1835 with the 2nd Clementina, and had 5
more children there ending up in Oxford County, Ontario. I am at a brick-wall finding any
family for Wm in Edinburgh. He is my gg-grandfather.
This is too close to ignore. Wm was a stone mason/builder. They lived at 8 Kerr St and 16
Allen St in the St Cuthberts Parish.
Your Thomas must have lived nearby. Do you have any family for him?
I could inquire on ScotFamTree for Helen and Thomas.
