Kincardineshire / Re: Findlays of Fetteresso
« on: Tuesday 15 March 11 19:40 GMT (UK)  »
Hi all, Fanny Findlay was my Grandmother and I remember Ninah well. My Grandmother wrote somethings down in the last few years of her life when she lived in Glebe Court. There is a lot written down about the history of the Craig and Findlay families and some of her youthful memories that make good reading. I was going to get it all re-typed but have not got round to it.

If anyone wants copies get in touch and I think my aunts have some more info if needed. There's also stuff on the Milnes as well
Hi there, I would be very interested in a copy of the history of the above families.

I believe you already had access to the records when you copied them from the originals held by a local farmer who found them when he was converting the school into a grain drier.

I copied these records about 20 years ago, and have no idea if the originals still survive.

If you have the complete set of admission records, I'm very pleased to hear that, and I look forward to accessing them on line.Thank You for letting me know.

When Kincardineshire was amalgamated with Aberdeenshire there was very strong rumors that school registry records among others were being destroyed!!.

Thank You for your help.

Hello, A couple of Cookney School Registers, one dated 1874-1889 the other 1897-1921 were recovered. these records had fallen down behind wall panels. As far as I'm aware the rest of the records were destroyed by the Council.
They are in Excel XLR format, so can be sorted by name date etc.
If anyone requires a copy?.PM me and I will email a copy to you.
Regards Dod
