Hi, Camerons. I have some Cameron ancestors and am having a little trouble
with my Thomas Cameron. Thomas and his wife Helen Stark had a son named
Thomas (that's the only one I can find) born in 1827 in Inchure. I believe,
but am not positive, that Thomas's parents are Thomas Cameron and Catherine
Elder, but can't prove it with documentation. I'm also having a problem
with Helen Stark's parents; I believe them to be Isabel Heaton and Alexander
Stark (married April 24, 1791 in Kinnettles, with a daughter ned Helen being
born in Forfar; would this be possible?) It could also be wishful thinking
about Helen's parents; I just really, really like those names and find
myself wanting them to be my relatives....I once started a thread about
being drawn to certain ancestor type names and wondering if there was a
genetic reason or familial memor or some such for it....I was surprised at
the responses in which lots of people thought that this was true. I was
really drawn to a possible couple named Jane Mennie and George Glennie and
really wanted them to be my relatives; I was very, very happy when they
turned out to be mine. I'm not looking to start THAT business again, but
was wondering if anyone could help me in my Camerons search. My
grandmother's mother was Margaret Mann Cameron (Bisset) born in 1870 in
Monifieth (her parents being Thomas Cameron and Ann Donald). Any
suggestions would be helpful to find Thomas Cameron's parents (I assume he
would be born around the beginning of the 1800's.)
