Some more about James Yuill and his Scottish Roots

I have finally managed to trace James Yuill’s family in Scotland.

James Yuill was born in Rutherglen, Lanark(Present Day area of Glasgow) in around December 4 1774  to John Yuill and Agnes Eadie or Addie.

John and Agnes married 23 July 1769 in Hamilton Lanark.

They had 5 children(that are known).

Margaret born June 1772

James born December 1774

William born March 1777

Gavin born February 1779

Thomas born February 1781

I believe that James was a solider at sometime working in England and that his brothers Gavin and Thomas were soldiers sent to Canada as well.

I am still looking into the family, so will post more information as I cross across it.

As always, thanks for reading
