You should be able to find your DINN and CLARK / CLARKE families on the 1841 Census. Join up as a new member of rootschat.com (have the same username as on familytreecircles) and post a census lookup request at RootsChat.com - Scotland - Fife. As Burntisland appears to be in Fife, link is for Fife board.
Regarding the CURRY surname, check back frequently at the surname wiki page on the homepage at familytreecircles and when I get time I'll create links for this surname. Maybe you can find out more from ancestry.com or by purchasing birth, death, marriage certificates of Elizabeth CURRY.
Regards,

There are quite a few CLARK researchers with journals here on familytreecircles and this surname is listed in the top surnames section.
mthomas101 on 2010-06-26 00:52:43Hi sldinn. I am also researching the James and Elizabeth... they are my husband's great great grandparents. Thier son John married Elva Holmes and they had James Holmes Dinn (my husband's grandfather). I was so excited to come across your post. I had no idea James came to the US so young!!! Now we are wondering why? We are told records will be hard to find in Scotland because they burned. I know your post is quite old, stll hoping to get a response.
