Arbuckle

Arbuckle Family

My family’s lineage can be traced back to approximately 1762, with the birth of William Arbuckle, most likely in Cambuslang. During that period, the population of Cambuslang stood at around 934 residents. In 1787, William entered matrimony with Marion Marshall in Cambuslang, and this union was also documented in the records of East Kilbride, Marion’s native parish. Marion, born in 1762 in the parish of Avondale, was the offspring of John Marshall and Marrion Stobo.
William and Marion’s union bore at least three children, all born in Cambuslang. Their presence was noted in the 1807 census of Cambuslang, which included William, Marion, Jane, Alexander, and John. The family resided in the East Cotes area, which was known to be inhabited by well to do miners during that era.
By 1841, William and Marion had relocated to Farme, Rutherglen, accompanied by their son Alexander. Both William and Marion passed away in 1842.
