I have some Meldrums from Drumblade.  I have a Charles Meldrum, born May 26, 1849 in Drumblade.  He married Jessie Ann Robertson, born Aug 25, 1853 in Gartly.  They were married in Glasgow Sept 29, 1875 and came to America (Buffalo, New York) in 1889.  Charles was an engineer and blacksmith in Huntly in the 1881 Census.

Charles's parents were Peter Meldrum and Elizabeth Mitchell.  Peter from Dukewell, Drumblade, born 1802 and Elizabeth from Kennethmont born 1815.  Peter's parents were William Meldrum and Janet Grant, from Rynie and Essie.

Would we be sharing the same family?

Hi John

I think we have a connection here.

My GGGG Grandmother is Ann Riddel her parents were Charles Riddel and Mary Morison.

I have attached a file which shows my connection with the Riddel Family.

Hope to hear from you soon.

Regards

Paul

Hello Paul,
I am researching people who lived at Bograxie near Inverurie.
Ann Riddel(husband John Mortimer) had a brother John who lived at Bograxie 1861 - 1881, married to Janet Cowie. I haven't managed to find death certificates for John or Janet, do you have any info on them or their children?

Hi John

Sorry for taken so long to get back to you.

Unfortunately I could'nt find deaths for John Riddel and Janet Cowie unfortunately I have not been able to find them after the 1881 census.

I am going up to Aberdeen Family History Society Research Centre hopefully in October so I going to have another look there.

In the meantime are you able to give me the information you have this family to see if that help me when i search for them.

regards

Paul

Hi Paul,
John and Janet farmed at Bograxie, near Inverurie, from about 1852 till 1881 when they seemed to disappear. I haven't investigated emmigration possibilities yet. Their son James, born Insch 1849, was also farming at Bograxie in 1881. He died in 1885, found drowned in the well of a neighbouring farm; his widow and family were at Newhills near Aberdeen in 1891. Keep looking and maybe we can finish the jigsaw one day.
John.

probably not anything related to your family of Riddells but i have a deceased Grandfather who was a John Riddell. He lived and died in Aberchirder (Foggieloan as it's known locally). I don't have any details other than he died possibly in the early 1990's and is buried in marnoch cemetary. If you've got or have come across anything that may link him in anyway please let me know as I'd be really pleased to receive anything at the minute that might help me move on in my search Smiley

Hi Paul

Unforunately I don't have a Peter Meldrum in my tree, there was two Meldrum families in Insch I have not found a connection between both as of yet.

Hi Paul,

I have the name Mortimer, Horn, Morrison in my family. My Mortimer and Morrison families originate from the mill of Knockenbaird, Insch.

I would love to hear your connection to this family.
