Would appreciate look-up for Baptism of James Asher 20/03/1812 in Alves, parents Alexander and Katherine Asher. Am particularly keen to confirm Alexander's occupation. Was he a stonemason?
you will be surprise to find a reply to your post the only thing is that I could not find was the birth that you asked for here is what I have found.
Alexander lawful son to Alexander Alexander Asher and Catherine Ross in Erneside was born on the 29 April and baptised on the 3rd May 1813. Witnesses Alexander Rob and Alezander Macrae.
&
Catherine lawful daughter of Alexander Asher and Catherine Ross born 31 Decembere 1815 and baptised 5 January 1817 Witnesses James Asher in Wester Alves and Thomas Johnson in Erneside.
I could find no birth for James and the old records don't really give occupations but I hope that this helps you.
I'm trying to find an Isabel Asher, so that I can trace back the Hendrys. Isabel Asher married George Hendry and they had a son Thomas Hendry b12.04.1824, christened 20.04.1824 in Forres. I know of no other children.
