« on: Monday 12 October 15 12:45 BST (UK) »
hi I'm looking for a bit of help finding a mcrobbie/mcrobie family I have them in the 1841 and 1851 cen at rathen Aberdeenshire but cant find them in the 1861 cen but have found them in the 1871 and 1881 cen again at rathen Aberdeenshire only not to find them again in the 1891 cen.

Have found them on the 1861 census.
Some of the children are down as Robbie but George and Elizabeth are recorded as McRobbie.
At Fairnie Crae. I searched Ancestry for son John born 1855 Rathen.

Hope this helps

Think I may have found them on the 1891 census on Ancestry but the transcription is awful. They are listed as George McRobie born 1816 Aberdee and Elva McRobie born  1815 Lonmay

Hope this helps

McRobbie is one of those names which can be spelt every which way. If my family-history researches are correct, I'm descended from a couple called Patrick Gellatly and Jean McRobbie in Moneydie near Perth. On their headstone her name is spelt Crobie - presumably easier to carve?

Found them easily enough in 1861 on Freecen. All are correctly transcribed as McRobbie & are at Fairniebrae, Rathen.  :)

It would be helpful if you could tell us where they were in 1891, Norma. I am having difficulty finding them in ancestry under the names & spellings you mention.

Sorry my apologies. Blame my age. Just looked again for them and they are under MCROBLE.

I typed in Elva and birth 1815 Lonmay and up they came.they are living at Upper Achnagorth in the parish of King Edward.

Hope you can find them now
