McGregor Davidson & Kiltie Family

Morning Linda
I have checked further this morning, on Scotland's People.
As the couple died in Stranraer, there is a distinct chance that all of their children were born in Stranraer or elsewhere in Wigtownshire.
As the Ship Manifests on FMP stop at 1960, that places the latest limit for finding any of their children migrating to Australia or anywhere else.
For the earliest limit, I usually take one year before the marriage; and strictly should repeat the Search using the Bride's Maiden Surname for the years around marriage.
Applying that to the SR Births in SP, I have searched for all McGregor variants from 1930 to 1960, in Wigtownshire.
There are 14, so 1 Page of Search Results, which are likely to contain ALL of their McGregor children.
Restricting the Search to Stranraer yields 4; but as that restriction has a greater chance of NOT including their children, better to stay with the 14 from Wigtownshire at NO extra cost.
That way, you have a very good chance of getting the First Names needed for the FMP Ship Manifest Search.
------------
I repeated the above Search, using Davidson & Variants, 1930 to 1933, producing 6 Results.
