Waugh family from Jedburgh, Roxburghshire

Robert:
My name is Doug Fitts. My GGgrandfather, Christopher Waugh was born in 1790 in Morebattle Parish, Roxboroughshire, Scotland. He married Elspeth Ainslie in 1817 and lived in Yeltholm, Roxboroughshie, Scotland until 1819 when he and his wife left for New York, USA and then to the area of London, Ontario, Canada where he lived out his days. I do not know about any relatives of Christoper in the 1700's or 1800's in Scotland and do not know if your Waugh's are related or not but Jedburgh is only a few miles away from Morebattle and Yeltholm.
I am living in Missouri and still have Waugh cousins around the London area, one of them putting a genealogy of Christopher together a few years ago. If you think we are a part of your family, I would very much like to hear from you.
