gen research on the ballantine line. David Ballantine was my gr-gr-gr grandfather on my dad's side. i know that david was married to dorothy pearson ballantine. from census records i know david was born abt 1802 in either scotland or ireland and then came to england. Their daughter ann married james young who is my gr gr grandfather. and so on down the line. i have copies of various census records for the family but limited information. i do have death register for david ballantine but no death certificate to provide any significant information. would love to hear back from someone researching the same line.
