Kandich / Kynoch family
« on: Sunday 11 March 07 15:35 GMT (UK) »
I am interested in the Kandich / Kynoch families from Moray and to find out why the name changed.

James Kynoch born c1764 married Margaret Sim in 1787 in Drainie, but  the surname had changed to Kandich when their first son John was bapt in 1790 in Elgin. They had a second son - William bapt 1792 in Elgin.
His second wife was Margaret Thompson, they married  in 1803 in New Spynie and had 2 daughters - Jannett b. 1804 and Margaret b. 1806.

James Kynoch / Kandich was a mason working in Elgin, he died in 1836 in Bishopsmill and is buried in the grounds of Elgin Cathedral.
His son, John Kandich, enlisted in the Royal Artillery in 1807 and served in Mauritius and Jersey before returning to Elgin in 1859.

Can anyone give me any more information on James Kynoch / Kandich or the Kynoch / Kandich families from this area?
