I just got my issue of the Borders Family History Society Magazine, a genealogical publication from the Borders of Scotland. I found a couple of entries of interest to folks in Delaware County. It's from "American Intimations in the Hawick Advertiser, Births 1859-1900 and Marriages 1855-1872," compiled by Marjorie Gavin. It's a listing of births and marriages reported in a Scottish Borders newspaper of folks from the Hawick area who emigrated to America. I found these two entries from Delaware County:
Births: PARK: At Andes, Delaware County, State of New York, on 20th January 1859, to the wife of Mr. Andrew Park, formerly of Lynwood, a daughter.
Marriages: MURRAY/JARDINE: At Bovina Centre, on 15th August 1855, Mr. James Murray to Isabella, daughter of the late Robert Jardine, Esq., Harwood, near Hawick.
