    Can't find Margaret Michie, but John Cockburn and Mary Michie had the following children (can't find a marriage record)



    27/12/1817 John Westruther, Berwick

    21/11/1820 Cranston Westruther, Berwick

    04/06/1822 Alexander Westruther, Berwick

    14/06/1825 Mary Old or West Kilpatrick, Dunbarton

    18/03/1827 Thomas Old or West Kilpatrick, Dunbarton

    06/05/1832 Margaret Largs(Ayr)



    Hope that's them - you can look up the actual baptism records on www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk if you want. it holds all the Scottish birth,marriage,death and census records.



    Good luck

    Celia
