Family research is like a huge jigsaw puzzle with lots of pieces missing. Each piece that fits in place is a cause for rejoicing. So many new cousins have come into my life since I started family research. If these pages bring even one more into the fold, then the whole effort will be worthwhile.
Mitchelson (or Mitchell) is my main line, and I can get back to an 1812 marriage in the Stewartry of Kirkcudbright. I suspect these Mitchelsons may have lived in England at an earlier point in time.
John Mitchelson married a Mary Thurot (1812) and her parents conveniently have some details on their gravestone at Kirkbean Cemetary, showing they both died in 1833 and their approximate age at that time. Where did John Thurot come from, is the question everyone asks.
