Ivie is a family name in our lineage the first recorded was: -
Ivie Hillhouse born 8.11.1812 died 27.01.1855 son of John Hillhouse and Mary Ann Campbell Mckinlay .
Mary Ann born Bank Cummnock Ayrshire 17.01.1776 died 11.02.1863 Louden Kirk Ayrshire [recorded in the Old Parochial Records as Campbell] was the daughter of William Mckinlay and Agnes Gemmell
Agnes Gemmel was born about 1756 and may be the Daughter of James Gemmell and Margaret Cunningham. as I have several OPR listings for both Agnes and William I need help to locate the correct lineage
Incidentally Ivie is an Ayrshire name which has the same meaning as John.
I have checked the Ayrshire 1851 and 1861 indexfor the Christian name Ivie and discovered at least 54 persons with that name within the county.The name is more prevalent in the some families such as Campbell Gregg Greig Hair Hillhouse McCluire et al. I know Hair is in your lineage but are any of the other names familiar?
