I have found two 'Gentle connections in my line - the first one is direct; this is Adam Gentles married to Margaret Main, 1879; Margaret was the daughter of John Main/ Helen Mitchell, my great,great grandparents. Adam's parents were John Gentles/ Margaret Dobbie. They apparently had no children. In her death certificate, it has him as an insurance agent, although in a census record, he is listed as a baker.
The second is through the John Main of Ballochney line, through which I am connected by marriage (several times). William Main, son of Robert Main/ Janet Russell, married Janet Gentles, 1819. Janet was previously married to Alexander Gardner. William and Janet had 7 children: Robert, m. Jean Reid, 1848; John, m. Janet Walker; William, m. Jane Watt; Elizabeth; Janet; James, m. Margaret Gray, 1864; Thomas, m. Helen Forsyth, 1879.
This is all the information I have on the Gentles, as I've not actively researched this line. Any further questions, please let me know. Do you information on any other siblings? If so, I would be interested in hearing from you about them.
