Sutherland Annie C 1838 any help?
« on: Tuesday 13 January 09 11:36 GMT (UK) »
Huh

I am trying to trace the birth of an Annie Sutherland and to confirm who her parents were.
She was my 2nd Gr Grandmother.
She married my 2nd Gr Grandfather John Mauchan in Rosneath at Craigrownie Castle she was a housemaid and he a Coach driver. I downloaded their marriage record from Scotlands people. The certificate names her parents as George and Margaret (nee Sutherland). The marriage took place on 22nd Dec 1863 and she was 25. She died in 1904 aged 70 (somewhere it's been rounded up or down) parents same fathers occupation farmer. The census record of 1891 has her age 52 and born in Lybster, Caithness. I have been unable to locate a birth record for her.
I found a potential marriage for her parents George and Margaret Sutherland on SUTHERLAND, GEORGE (O.P.R. Marriages 038/ 0030 0040 Latheron)   in 1832
Would love some help in finding her birth record and confirming her parentage.
Any help would be very much appreciated
Thanks
Gillian

Hi Gillian,

There is this one I found on SP. Bit earlier than you thought, but she does seem to have adjusted her age a tad throughout the years. Grin

Ann Sutherland, 24/03/1833 Latheron - parents George and Margaret Sutherland

Other children to this couple are: Elizabeth 1831 (before marriage, possibly? Huh) and Helen 1837.

IGI also has Euphemia born 1835 and John born 1829 to this couple. FreeCEN has the family in 1841 in Lybster, Latheron, all born Caithness

George – 40, Occupation - Fisher
Margaret - 40
John - 10
Elizabeth - 8
Ann - 6
Euphemia - 4
Hellen – 2

This could be Annie’s parents in the 1851 census at Smerly Lybster, Latheron, all born Latheron
George – 55, Occupation - Agricultural Labourer
Margaret – 50
Elizabeth - 17 – Occupation - Herring Net Maker

There is also a potential marriage for George Sutherland and Margaret Sutherland on IGI for 12th March 1828 in Latheron

I had a look through the Latheron MI's and some photos of gravestones I have taken but I haven't managed to find Ann's parents

Hi Thank you both for the information that is great - I have downloaded the birth image from SP

Pity she has such a common name - "Mauchan" one has been much easier !
I guess I'll stop at this generation as it will be a little difficult to be sure I've got the right family. I did find that census record which was a little tempting. I guess he could have changed jobs or that the transcriber may have go it wrong, I can't quite read the occupation for wither of the parents on the marriage certificate I'll attach a snip maybe someone with with a bit more experience in deciphering writing can help!


Thanks again
G Cheesy

I wouldn't make too much of the discrepancies in the occupation of George Sutherland, many Fishermen in Scotland also worked the land and vice versa, I've got several in my tree who interchange between the two.

As for the occupation of John Mauchan's Father, the first word looks like "Quill" to me, not sure of the rest though.
