McEwans in Fife.....

[Aushazz]

Hello to you all

I have been researching my husbands family tree and have hit a brick wall. All of the people listed below have a connection with either Beath ( Lassodie) or Dunfermline.

I am seeking information on one of many ROBERT MC EWAN'S. He seems to have disappeared....
Robert married Elizabeth Addison on 03/06/1859 in Dunfermline. he and Elizabeth had at least one son, JohnMc Ewan born31/08/1864 ( I gather there were more before him!). John married Margaret Chalmers27/02/1885.
Elizabeth passed away 16/11/1869 and Robert remarried Margaret Burt(?) 12/05/1871. There should be children from this marriage as Margaret was only 20 years old.

I am also interested in going back further but am having no luck either. Roberts parents were ROBERT MC EWAN & JANET PITBALDO (also Pitbalddo). Elizabeth's parents were JOHN ADDISON & AGNES SIGGIE.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Regards

There was another John Beveridge born in Beath in 1869 parents John and Margaret Wilson. But both are still alive in 1881 making it more likely that the family above are the correct ones:
