Whyte's of Auchterderran
« on: Tuesday 30 September 14 10:52 BST (UK) »
My 3x Great Grandparents Robert Whyte (c1806-1861) and Mary Watson (c1798-) had 5 children

Barbara c1827-1883
Grace c1831-
Mary c1837-
Margaret c1840-
Robert c1847-

I've found the family in the 1841 census and also the 1851 census. Mary is not on the 1851 census and she is possibly working away from home. Their mother died before sometime between 1851 and 1856 (from daughter Barbara's marriage details) In 1861 census their father Robert is living with his daughter Barbara, husband Daniel Mathewson and family at Boness.

I'm trying to find out what happened to Grace, Mary, Margaret and Robert. I've found some possibilities for them on census from 1861 and on but nothing definite.

Does anyone have any information about this family?

Thank you.

Hi ,

A family tree has Grace Whyte born 1831 Fife , parents Robert Whyte and Mary Watson , married to Alexander Pearson with a death in Victoria(Australia ?).

Don't know if any of that is correct , but it might give you something to work on  :-\
