New Update for 2009
This section includes all known descendants of Walter Beattie 1679-1752 and Marion Black 1700-1789. It also includes a potential father for Walter as a William Beattie. The only exceptions are that certain details of living people are omitted and the youngest generations of children are not listed at all.Note that I previously had Walter's parents as William Beattie and Grizzel Porteous, but the dates for Grizzel's birth suggest she would be too old by the time Walter was born, so although Walter's father is probably a William Beattie, he is not the same one as married Grizzel Porteous. This first generation is still unproven but is included so that the Beattie, Glendinning and Thomson trees share the same generation numbers.
- As it has been some time since these pages were updated, there are significant additional details of this line, including confirmation of dates and places of events
- new to this version are descendants of John Glendinning, Innkeeper in Langholm, with thanks to Sandra McCallum.
- significant updates to the descendants of John O'Sullivan and Ida Palmer, with thanks to Debra Dirks

- this version expands on the descendants of Captain James Scott and Mary Beattie with more details of their Australian families, with thanks to Greg Walker and Bronwyn Gorman.
- continuing thanks to Lee Dickson for additional background information on the Scarborough Glendinning families
I would like to acknowledge the help of Ann Carson for Borthwick families, Michael Laidlaw, Bill & Bunty Hart and Hamish Carmichael for Laidlaw descendants, Greg Walker for Beattie and Scott families, Ian Walker for Beattie, Halliday and Jackson families, Barb Way for Fairley descendants, Sandra McCallum for Scottish Glendinning familes, Alison Mossler Wright for Hamilton descendants, Sharon Taylor for Riddell descendants, Roy Robertson for Robertson familes, Frank Sylvester for Sylvester descendants, Annelies Batty for Walton descendants, and Pete Allison, Nolan Baird III, Annette Clark, Myrna Coubrough, Lee Dickson, Katharine English, Bob Galbraith, Bill Glendinning, Scott Glendinning, Doreen Leach, Shelley Love, Donna Miller, Kathryn Robinson, Carolyn Smith, Jane Stewart, Ken Sullivan and Wayne Thomson for Canadian Glendinning and Thomson descendants, amongst others who have pointed me in the right direction.
While I and the above researchers have verified some of the information from original OPR and SI data from New Register House, in Edinburgh and the equivalent resources in Canada, other data has been gathered from various sources and so it is recommended you obtain verification independently for data that is vital to your research.
