John Bridson and Catherine Taggart

Hi again,

Still trying to find a connection.

Does anyone know this family?

John Bridson birth and death unknown at this time.
MARRIED
Catherine Taggart 28 Feb 1807 at Kirk St Anne
Catherine possibly daughter to Matthias Taggyrt and Isabel Leece ch 11 Feb 1787 at Santon, I think!

Matthias and Isabel married 12 Nov 1785 at Santon

Children

John Bridson ch 21 Feb 1808 Malew
William Bridson ch 25 Feb 1810 Malew
Margaret Bridson ch 11 Oct 1818 Malew
Ann Bridson ch 5 Nov 1820 Malew
Thomas Bridson ch 19 Oct 1823 Malew
Robert Bridson ch 12 Mar 1826 Malew

Possibly more children due to the 8 yr gap between William and Margaret's births.

I am hoping to find that William born 1810 is in fact my G X 3 grandfather. My William married Catherine Quayle from Kirk Michael Jan 1 1834 at Kirk St Anne; she was the daughter of William Quayle from German and Margaret Corjeage from Kirk Michael.

I would also like to find who John Bridson senior is son of and then I can trace from there. So far no luck and I've been at it for a wee while now!

Grateful thanks again to Michael Bridson as always a huge help.

Kind regards
