Could anybody help me find the following people.
Margaret Drummond married George smith Duncan. They had the following children; George Smith b 1854, Margaret Jane b 1858, William John b 1862, Frederick Grant b 1864, Arthur b 1867, Elizabeth Drummond Duncan b 1867 and Helen Smith Duncan b 1872. I am wanting to fill in gaps in our Drummond family history.

Hello

From the 1881 census:

Allan House Newton St Blairgowrie, Perth

George S. Duncan Head Marr 69 Accountant b Glenbervie, Kincardine
Margaret Duncan wife 49 b Monievaird, Perth
William J. Duncan son 19  Bank Clerk b New York (British Subject), United States
Arthur D. Duncan son 14 scholar b New York (British Subject), United States
Elizabeth D. Duncan daughter 12  scholar b Braco, Perth
Helen S. Duncan daughter 8 b Newtyle, Forfar

Regards,   Steve  :)

PS also found a Frederick G Drummond earlier - a grocers assistant born Philidelphia - and now can't find him - a boarder in Lanarkshire?

Thankyou Steve for replying with information that is of real help. Frederick Grant Duncan came to NZ to visit with John and Marjory Drummond {who I decend from} they were his grandparents. He contracted TB and died in NZ aged 29. He is buried with other decendants in Riwaka Cemetary NZ. His mother Margaret was daughter to John and Marjory. I have only found this information during the christmas break talking to relatives.

Hi scoobie2010,
I am hunting down a lead from my family tree which relates  to Drummonds in Riwaka. Can you PM me please? (I am unable to PM for some reason).
Kelly and Lawrie from Glasgow

Wendelborn and Fanselow from Mecklenberg, Germany (pre 1844)

Papps from somewhere in Europe! (1800s?)

I have just joined Rootschat so can't private message at the moment. I live in Motueka, NZ, and have a copy of the book 'History of the Drummond Family of Dehra Doon, Riwaka' featuring your family. I am not related to the Drummonds, but have a few distant rellies who married Drummonds. Can check if book still in print if you like.
Kind regards
Debbie
