Clavie King - Burghead - COMPLETED
« on: Tuesday 13 October 09 16:12 UTC (UK) »
For a period before 1988 the Clavie King of Burghead was a James McKenzie.  I have just realised today that he may be a relation of my husband.

I wondered if there are any readers familiar with this event who might have a photo of previous kings.

I have the entry from Libindx NM012832.  At some point I hope to come up to the area and extract the obituary to see if it helps me.  If his father was the owner of the bakery and had the Commercial Hotel in Burghead  he is definitely a relation.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Betty

That would be brilliant.

I have found the entries that you can access on line ie NM012832, NM108234, NM108564, NM106627, NM108279, NM109047, NM107854. I am hoping James belongs to the rest of this family.  I also have all the newspaper entries and grave stone photos apart from the first one which is for James the Clavie King.

I do not have the obituary for James.  If you could find it in NS of 13th Nov 1987 10/8 that would be brilliant or if there is any other literature for James when he was Clavie King before 1987 that might include a photo.  I found a mention in an old Northern Scot dated 23rd January 2009 in Echoes of the past which had an extract from a 1959 newspaper.  It mentioned James by name.

Thanks for your time.

Hi Betty I have managed to get quite a lot of the info you require including a photo of Robert Ross Williamson from another post. Let me know what you would like to do..... I can post the copies on to you if you wish.
