I am trying to trace descendants of:
Jean Robinson WORKMAN m 29 Oct 1924 Grand Hotel, Glasgow (daughter of
Edward Workman & Margaret nee Leckie)
James Hutton CHISHOLM (Medical Practitioner, son of James Chisholm &
Marion Jane nee Ross)
Jean Robinson CHISHOLM was my Great Grandmother's Great Niece.
My Great Grandmother, Catherine Lochhead, came to Australia in the
1850s and her family (Lochhead) remained in Scotland.
So far I haven't been able to track any descendants down.
Known names:
Edward Workman, Margaret Lochhead (nee Leckie) Workman, Hugh Workman,
Margaret Lochhead Workman, Winifred Workman, Jean Robinson Workman.
Thanks for reading & I hope someone may be able to help.

Donald & Krista,
I am also a descendant of John Chisholm and Ann (Nancy) Munro. The family tree I have lists them as having 11 children, and David and John are listed (though a son, William is listed with a DOB of 1785). My family tree ends with John and Ann (Nancy). I am a descendant of Donald Wilson Chisholm, born 1798, died 1848. Donald, if you can email me the family tree you have, I would appreciate it. I also have much information about my family tree (and others from my tree) if you would like information posted here. Thanks!

I'm Judy's first cousin, so of course Evaline Chism Singleton is my grandmother also. Our family sources have indicated the following:
A certain John Chisholm (I'm pretty sure his wife was Elizabeth Johnson.) had a son John Henry, whose wife was said to be Katie Baysinger. Their daughter Isabell married Stephen Douglas Chism, son of Gabriel Chism and Hester Sewell. (I've learned that this Gabriel Chism was the son of John Chism and Margaret Tibbs.) Isabell and Stephen Douglas Chism had a daughter Evaline who married Christopher Columbus Singleton, whose parents were John Henry Singleton and Amanda Jane Bennett.
Now, in the last few months I also have been trying to identify Katie Baysinger, and I have a hypothesis.
On 4 April 1859 in Meade County, KY, John Henry Chism, of age, married Kitty Ann Thompson (with consent of her mother Ellen). On 21 September 1885 Mrs. Kitty Ann Chism married Charles Baysinger. My hypothesis is that Katie Baysinger and Kitty Ann Thompson are the same person, but I don't have proof. I can't find any trace of Mrs. and Mrs. Charles and Katie Baysinger after their wedding - or of Charles at all, anywhere else. Also, if Katie Baysinger was not the same person as Kitty Ann Thompson, then who was she?
Any light shed on this issue will be very much appreciated!

I am looking for information on John Chisholm who married Amelia Flowers. Is there anyone out there who knows anything about this fellow. They had two sons John and Alexander who moved to MS ca 1820's with thier mother Amelia. Amelia was the daughter of Ignatious FLowers. John CHisholm seems to have died around 1809 North or South Carolina.
