I am looking for any links to the following Rennie family:

James Rennie (1787 - 1867), died 25th August 1867 in Adelaide, SA.
2nd Wife: Mary Rennie (nee Smith), died in Adelaide February 1867.
Child of that marriage - Mary, born in Sydney 1841.

James had 2 other children to his 1st wife, Elizabeth Malcolm.
Edward Alexander Rennie (1820 - 1911)
Crestina (1822 - 1859)

Children of Edward Alexander Rennie
Amelia Cummins Rennie (1857 - 1921)
Grace Malcolm Rennie (1859 - 1939)
George Edward Rennie (1861 - 1923)
Charles Edward Rennie (not sure of dates)
Edward Henry Rennie (1852 - 1927)

Edward Henry Rennie married Agnes Allison Cadell, in South Australia

Any links would be appreciated.

I am also interested in any writings of James Rennie, that he would have
made, especially to the Adelaide Advertiser, before his death in 1867.
James was Professor of Natural History at Kings College, London, from
1830 to 1834.
