John and Menie

The fifth child of John Barclay and Margaret Allan was John, who was born in Kilbirnie on Christmas Eve 1794. John was a Servant at Ladyland, and on 29th December 1823 he married Menie Montgomrie. They already had one son James (born on 26th May 1823) and then on 23rd September 1827 they had their first daughter Mary, followed by two more daughters - Margaret on 26th July 1829 and Janet on 23rd June 1839.
There is still some work to do on this generation of the family - the records suggest they may have had another son. John died on the 21st April 1861
