1751 After their first child, Margaret, was born and died a few days after the birth, they emigrated to Australia.

Initially they resided at Cowra, NSW, later moving to Ungarie, NSW.

Margaret was an accomplished pianist and her obituary says she held a D.Mus.
Her obituary states, in part, "she bravely faced the challenge of life in a new land where she raised a large family many miles from medical aid and other amenities. Although virtually isolated from World affairs she inherited her family's interest in international matters and politics."

The obituary writer falsely, claims an association with Robert Aitken, the astronomer and Director of the Lick Observatory, California. There is no connection.
At the time of Margaret's death in the Western Suburbs Hospital she was residing with her son-in-law and daughter, Mr & Mrs Forsyth, at Rostherne Avenue, Croydon, NSW.

1763 Agnes Thompson was born in 1775 in Carriden. Her father was from Boness and her mother from Kirklston near Edinburgh. Agnes had one older brother who was also born in Carriden in 1783.

Matthew Aitken was born in 1776, also in Carriden and lived there with his 4 sisters until at least 1789.

It is likely Agnes and Matthew lived in the Carriden area till they met and married in 1803 (no record) when they were 28 and 29. After marrying Matthew and Agnes lived in the area till at least 1810. They had 2 sons and a daughter. It is not known where they lived between 1810 and 1836.

At some point Matthew moved to Silvermine Farm where he died in 1836. The Aitkens family lived in the rolling countryside of West Lothian abutting the parishes of Torphichen and Bathgate. The family were the occupants of Silvermine farm, as tenants of the Marquis of Linlithgow, as early as 1613 and until the tenancy was relinquished by one of the brothers in 1884. Silvermine farm is east of Torpichen (Matthew's brother Robert Aitken reported the 'Silvermine Farm' name in 1855-59 government survey). Matthew's brother Robert was a man of substance, a tenant farmer on the Marquis of Linlithgow's estate and a lime merchant with property in the market town of Bathgate. From at least the middle 1700's the Aitkens worshipped and were buried at the local town of Torphichen. Robert's grandson was William Maxwell Aitkens (b1879-d1964) who later became 'Press Barron' Lord Beaverbrook.

After 1836, Agnes probably moved to Grangepans where she was a salt carrier (age 70). Her daughters Alison (30) and Elizabeth (25) were Tambourers (lace makers). There is also a Janet Aitken at the same residence.

1789 Alan became quite a tragic figure. He owned Bowland house near Galashiels and was the last of the Ramsay line to live there. After the birth of his children Frances left him because of his chronic alcoholism.
Eventually he moved from Bowland to 53 Wingate Crescent, Dunbar.
It was here that Alan died on 15 Aug 1993. Death was attributed to acute myocardial infarction, coronary thrombosis and chronic alcoholism.

Bowland was sold. "When the builders moved in they found only two rooms of the large house had been used. The other rooms were exactly as they were when his wife moved out. The nursery cot was still made up with sheets and blankets etc." (Forgotten families of Galashiels, by Margaret Lawson,)

Alan was a member of the Masonic Lodge

Alan had been in Canada and returned to Scotland on 23 Sep 1957 aboard the "Empress of Scotland" of the Canadian Pacific line. Sailing from Montreal to Greenock
