was born December 21, 1794 in Lanark, Lanarkshire, Scotland4,

Robert Cowperthwaite and Mary Calderwood on April 25th at Barr - by - Girvan.
Between 1813 and 1823 six of their children where baptised at Barr - by -
Girvan accordinng to the parish registers and these were John, Agnes, Helen
(shown as a son), William, Alexanderina and Robert. The first four show the
family living in ‘Bridgend’ at Barr - by - Girvan which was a house in Barr
village where Robert were a Molecatcher. The family had moved to be living in
‘Balbegg’ of North Balloch, Barr - by - Girvan parish when Alexanderina and
Robert were born. This has not been traced up to now. Sometime after Robert’s
birth and November 1825 the family had moved to Kirkmichael and were living
in ‘Ladymoor’ again has not been
located. Three children Thomas, Mary and Lillias were all born here
with entries in the Kirkmichael Parish Record. The last named in 1829
December. Here again Robert were shown as a molecather. The next two children
Janet and Sarah were born 1832 and 1834 respectively at Dailly. Both entries
are in the parish records but no other details are shown. The rest of the children
starting with Peter in 1836 were born in Kirkoswald, with Robert shown as a
Farmer and the family living in ‘Lagderry’ a croft I have located and the
remains of the farm house photographed. The Kirk Session Records show in
August 1836 amongst the Young Communicants my ancestor William Couperwhaite
