Thanks Lettie

Hi Lettie;
I have found the following;
25 Nov 1750 - John Shand in Old Rayne, and Mary Stewart, his spouse, had a son born and baptised Charles before these witnesses, Arthur Shand, in Westhall, and Alexr. Tower in Old Rayne; 30 Nov 1752 a dau Katherne; 7 Nov 1754 a son John; 27 Dec 1756, a son Robert. (This family were probably of the same immediate stock as the Shands of Insch and Kemnay, all within the district in which we find the earliest entries of the surname. They were the progenitors of the Rev. John Shand, M.A. of Kintore. Of his family two survive, the Misses Shand of Belmont Street, Aberdeen, the well-known and highly respected for their charities and benevolence. The Hon. Lord Shand, one of the judges of the Supreme Court of Scotland, is a son of the late Alexr. Shand Esq., Merchant in Aberdeen, a son of the said Rev. John Shand of Kintore.)
This is from the Rev Shan's genealogical work you can find on;

Hope this is of help,
