Riach and Younie families in Morayshire and beyond.

I have a full family history of both families but am always looking to connect with other reserchers.

Do you have any ties with the Younie family from Rafford in Moray? Particularly a John Younie born 1818 who married Ellen Mavor and came to Canada in 1858?

Hi Jeff

I have this family in my database but as yet have not been able to link them into my main Younie/Riach lines which seem to go on forever and in all directions.

But I live in hopes that one day all the seperate families may just slip into place.  Well I can dream !

I have an Elizabeth (Betsey) Riach married in 1823 to my GGGG Grandfather John Culbard from Elgin...does this feature in your connections.

Morning Jess

Yes I know of the couple but as yet have not managed to link them in to the main Riach line.

There are so many Riach people of the same name and similar ages  you end up with lots of 'hangers on' -  there are a few families who I could link Elizabeth with but there is that element of doubt.     

But as usual will keep on plodding.

I was wondering if you have any connection with John Younie married Janet Chalmers in 1774 Knockando, Moray. I am descended from their eldest daughter Janet Younie who married John Black. I would love to fill in more information on this family.

A match, although distant.

John Younie  is the great grand uncle of George Younie   Their common ancestors are George Younie.

The first George Younie mentioned is married to Helen Riach.  Helan and I being 3rd cousins 3 times removed.

Distant but still on the tree.

If I can fill any gaps, and visa versa let me know.

Hi Carol
Bascially all the information I have on the YOUNIE family are the children of John Younie and Janet nee CHALMERS (from IGI) as well as the descending line through Janet and John BLACK. I believe the father of John Younie was also a John, but I think you seem to have much more information on this family than I have.

As I am new to Rootschat, is there any way we can share information or is it all done through Rootschat.
