From Janet Greig Smith March 2007. janetgreigsmith@tiscali.co.uk: One piece of information that may be useful to you is information about Agnes Sloans death - 24th 3 1770 - spouse to George Gregg - smith at North Balloch) that's according to a Barr churchyard inscription. So she may well have died in childbirth.

Hugh was aged 52 when he married Marion McWhirter [SCR FR215] - poss 2nd marriage?
Hugh's Parents verified on his Death Cert. Hugh was 99 years old when he died. Hugh and Marion both died in 1862.

Info Mary Martin April 2008:
Hugh Gregg & Marion McWhirter in Barr in the 1861 census. I was pretty sure it was him and so I got the Death Extract. It was - wife & parents as per your website. He died at Shallochwell 19 Jun 1862 aged 99 yrs. His wife died the same year but before him as he was described as a widower.

Christened 3 Nov 1781, Barrr by Girvan Ayrs Scotland IGI-C11580-2

Pending further research:
IGI - name: Marrion Mcwhirter baptism 03 Nov 1781, BARR BY GIRVAN, AYR, SCOTLAND father's name: John Mcwhirter, C11580-2

This could be her Fathers 2nd or 3rd marriage to step a mother as no siblings were found before the 1785 matrriage date below:
IGI - Marriage: JOHN MCWHIRTER : MARRION MCNARRON: 19 NOV 1785 Barr By Girvan, Ayr, Scotland: M11580-6

Thus could then be Marion's half brother:
IGI - name: John Mcwhirter baptism 28 Nov 1786 baptism BARR BY GIRVAN, AYR, SCOTLAND father's name: John Mcwhirter C11580-2

Marion ( _ _ ?_ _ ) died about 80 years of age in 1862, the same year that her husband Hugh died aged 99

Some records spell first name as Marron for Mareon.
