Marriage Notes for JOHN RAVIE and ELIZABETH ROBERTSON:
John Ravie and Helen Robertson are the earliest members of the Ravie family I have documented. John and Helen seemed to have been married in Northern Ireland in the early 1800's. Elizabeth was born in 1798 in Newtownards, Co Down. Her parents were John Robertson and Elizabeth Robertson ms.

When their son John Ravey was born the names were John Ravey and Helen Robinson.
When James was born the names were John Reevy and Helen Robertson, they stayed
in Stevenston, Ayrshire in 1834.

In the marriage certificate of James they stayed at Kilwinning in 1855. This i s near Ardrossan.
The only John Ravie and Robertson I could find in the SRO were John Ravy and Helen Robertson, they had a daughter Elizabeth who died in 1865 aged 30 years, the registration was at Ayr. In the 1851 census for Ayr Helen Revie age 53 (widowed) and James Revie aged 16 are staying with the Lauries at the back off number 47 the HIGH Street. Helen was born in Co Down and James in Ardrosan. I think this is the correct family.

John Ravie 40 Born Ireland
Helen Ravie 40 Born Ireland
David Ravie 14 Born Ireland
