Thomas Fergusson1

(c 1758 - 1844)
Father*Thomas Fergusson2,1
Mother*Janet Conacher3,1 b. 1724
Thomas Fergusson was born in Moulin, Perthshire, circa 1758. and was baptised on 30 November 1758 in Moulin.1,3

Thomas's grandsons Alexander and John claimed that "My father (John Fergusson, i.e Thomas's second son) had three brothers and two sisters; the names of the sisters were Jane and Mary, and of the brothers Donald, William, and Adam. Donald and William went to Baltimore, America, and Adam went to Keputh on the Tay, where he died. He was a blacksmith to trade. As far as my great-grandfather is concerned (i.e Thomas's father), I know nothing about him, further than that his name was Adam Fergusson."
This statement does not match other details from the GRO and elsewhere for the children of Thomas as there is no Donald (but there is a James). Was there an unrecorded Donald and did James die young?
Also, the claim that Thomas's father was Adam does not fit with the research of D.A. Cooper, who documents it as another Thomas and the most likely match seems to be the Thomas who married Janet CONACHER.2

He married Christian Douglass in Scotland.4

He was listed in the 1841 census at Balyoukan in Moulin, Perthshire, with his wife Christian; he was a mason.5

Thomas died on 1 May 1844 in Moulin, Perthshire.6,7 He was buried at the Moulin churchyard in Moulin.6,7
