Pittendreigh/Pittendrigh/Pittendrich. NOW COMPLETED.
« on: Thursday 12 July 07 10:01 UTC (UK) »

Hello,
Does anyone have ancestors with this name or any information about them? 
We think they came from Aberdeen.
Ann Pittendreigh married Donald Ross Whyte from Durness in 1840, but I believe they were married in Old Machar, Aberdeen.  They later lived in Durness according to Census returns. 
I would be grateful for any information which could give me a clue about her parents or siblings.

Thanks Monica,
That certainly looks like them.  We know he worked in the Salmon industry.  I wonder what a Salmon Baler is?

hi pal,

i wonder if your ann made it past 1855? can check death cert for £1 to establish parents.

in the meantime...

i think your ann was the daughter of john and margaret duguid

i think that john was the son of john and marjory leith

tell you why....

there is a christening showing for ann on the igi's, 1808

john pittendrich married margaret dugiud on the 24/8/1799 at fyvie aberdeen. i can find only 3 children on the igi's

pittendrich children from marriage:

ann...christened...4/2/1808...kinnethmont
robert...christened...14/8/1814...old machar
william...christened...6/10/1816...old machar


1841 census- chronicle lane, greyfrairs, aberdeen

pittendreich family

john...age 75...meal seller
margaret...age 60...meal seller
robert...age 25...camey weaver
william...age 20
james wishart...age 30...road contractor...birthplace unknown


john pittendrich was christened 24/6/1744(son of william) and married marjory leith(3/6/1748, fintray, dau of james). the couple had their banns read twice on the same day. 16/10/1753 at old machar and belhelvie.

In the interests of avoiding duplication, see my posts (Edit: and Kate's response) on:
http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php?topic=243959

The 1840 marriage/banns entries are in Old Machar, Aberdeenshire and in St Nicholas, parish of Aberdeen, Aberdeenshire.

Census entries give Ann's approximate birthdate as 1813 and birthplace as Aberdeen.

A possible baptism might be Ann PITTENDREACH, father James, 1814 - at St Nicholas in the parish of Aberdeen, Aberdeenshire.

Kate, I hope you view the marriage/banns entries and the baptism and let us know if they are any help.

Apparently the WHYTE family moved to England so, assuming Ann died there, death cert would not help  Sad
Edit: Apparently it was a son John who moved south.  So Kate might well find Ann's death on SP  Grin
Further edit: Seems to be there - Ann WHYTE, other name PITTENDRICH, year 1877, age 65.

Joe,
Thanks for sending the details.  We think Ann was born in 1813 so this is probably not the right Ann.

I have posted a message on the Aberdeen page/ Look up requests/ Pittendrich (and all names variants!!)  which is an update on my search for Ann's parents.  From her death record from Scotlandspeople, we can see that her parents were Alexander and Mary.  Alexander was an Undertaker.
Ann died instantly on July 26th 1877 by falling 40 feet!!!  Death was reported by her daughter Marjory Whyte.

Thanks to all who took an interest and tried to help me.
