I am tracing the family outlined below. Robert Smith WADDELL (I) may have been born in New Monkland. There is a Robert Waddell christened in New Monkland on Jan 1, 1832, son of James Waddell and Kerr EWING. I don't have access to any records that would prove or disprove this link.
Robert Smith Waddell married Jane McVEY September 10, 1854 in Barony, Lanark, Scotland
They had 4 children:
Robert Smith Waddell b. 8/7/1865 High Church, Glasgow, Lanark, Scotland m. Agnes ~1890 in the US 5 children: Robert S, Maggie, James, William and Agnes
William Waddell b. August 1869 New York, USA m. Mary (from NY) ~1890 2 children: William and Jane
Robert Smith Waddell (I) and Jane had 2 other children who died prior to 1900. I do not know if they were born in the US or Scotland.
The family immigrated to New York in 1868.
