My Grandmother Jean King Batton



This is my grandmother Jeannie King's death certificate. She died of TB at Ayrshire Central Hospital on 15th January 1952. She was the daughter of Frank King and Maggie Brown.

My poor Mum is named after both of her grandmothers - Margaret McCurdie Brown Batton..... Hence the reason none of her children had middle names!

George Batton Born 1879 Died 1929 Aged 50



Birth certificate for George Batton, my great grandfather. George was born in 1879, the son of Andrew Batton and Lilias McGregor Batton. George married Margaret McCurdie and passed away at home in Galston, Ayrshire - cause of death was a heart attack at the very young age of 50, on 24th May 1929. Copy of death certificate below. How ironic that his son George was to die of the same disease, at home in Darvel, Ayrshire on 20th May 1976, aged on 59 years.

George Batton Born 1807 Died 1872

Samuel and Jessie Batton



These photographs are off Samuel and Jessie Batton. Samuel Batton born 1855.

I found them on the photos section of Ancestry.com website.

According to recent findings Samuel was the son of George Batton and Elizabeth Massey.

Could this be the same Samuel Batton?
