Hi,
I have a William Ferrier b. 25/7/1794 in Kinnell, Forfar whose father was also William which might fit in with your william b 1760s. The father was listed as a dyker - later descendants were stonemasons - and his wife was Catherine Bowen. Alexander is also one of the names which appears with regularity in the descendants.
Any possibility of a link?

Hi Jean
I have ANN OGILVY b. Feb 11, 1770, Perth, Scotland married to JOHN FERRIER b. Nov 17, 1759. They were married in Dundee, Angus on Apr 12, 1790.
KIds : John, Ann, Jean, Mary and James.
I would suspect your people and mine may be related but for now I have no connection. I will let you know if I find anything.
Happy searching,
Ontchick

I have some ... not directly but connected.
My 4G Aunt, Elizabeth Meldrum born 26th Jan 1814 in Dundee married a Gibson Ferrier 27th Jun 1839 in Ferry-Port-on-Craig, Fife.
Elizabeth was the daughter of Thomas Meldrum and Elizabeth Pirie of Fife, somewhere, possibly Newburgh.
I don't know anything much about Gibson - he died before 1881 but I can't find his dc. Gibson and Elizabeth had minimum 4 children. They are shown on the 1841 as living in Dundee where Gibson Ferrier aged 25 was a clerk born 'Outside Census County'.
I have a copy of Elizabeth's will and quite a bit on the Ferrier children - especially their eldest John Ferrier who became very successful as an East India Merchant.
I have also in my notes, the following with regard to their son Gibson, born 5th Jan 1844 in Dundee
"In 1871, Gibson was a lodger at 21, Gt. Percy Street, London along with his brother John. His occupation is shown as Commercial Clerk (Bank). Gibson may have died before his mother 1886, he is not mentioned in her will, she left everything to John and their sister Eliza. He could also be the Gibson Ferrier, Newspaper Manager, married to Annabella b. Auckland NZ (British Subject) in the 1891 English Census living in Kensington, but unlikely as this Gibson is shown as being born in Perth"
I mention it only because I seem to have found another Gibson Ferrier with a Perth connection.
regards,
Lindsay
