Bridge Ale House - thats a brilliant starter - this is not a normal residence for this family so I wonder if it had anything to do with her health at the time - many thanks to both of you and may I say so quick too - and oops another message as I was writing has arrived - Kiltore - that is all starting to fit in now - bless you all - . . . ; )

A little bit of information, I don't know if it will help.
 The Aberdeen to Inverurie Canal was opened in 1807, it closed in 1852 after being sold to the Great North of Scotland Railway Company. Bridgealehouse operated as an ale house beside the canal and later for the nearby Kintore railway station (Aberdeen to Huntly line) which opened in 1854. The house was probably also a posting station on the Great Northern Road, with three stage-coaches passing through Kintore twice daily, this would certainly have called for the ample stabling provided by this good-sized steading.
Bownass - Lancashire & Westmorland
Hoggarth - Lancashire & Westmorland
Jackson- Lancaster
Waller - Dent, Yorkshire dales
Omerod - Lancashire
Redburn - Lancashire
Evans - Hereford

The name `Bridgealehouse' had been altered to `Bridgend' some time before the Third Statistical Account, but lives on in the nearby `Bridgealehouse Burn'

This brilliant - My great grand father worked with horses - and one of his sons may have been born - Huntly - William Alexander Shaw B: 1919 - still to be confirmed - wow - doesn't it make you feel good getting it all to fit in - now to find why a young lass of just 12- 14 died there - any was there anymore siblings who may have gone the same way - thank you all so much . . . : )

"Wow" I needed a sleep after that one - why did my grandfathers sister died at Bridge Ale House - were they at one time residing there with her father James working with the horses or because of the railway line were they actually traveling at the time in view of Mary's health . . . ?

Out of all the children I can find all the others being born Leochel Cushnie (3) up to now - Mary was the only one born at Towie where her mother Helen McGregor was born - at first I thought with it being a house - just maybe it was a home for the infected - we now know that this is not so - Bridge Ale house was a lovely house in its day - now C listed - this family - my family - never seemed to be on poverty road so - what brought on this deadly infection that within months killed poor Mary - my thoughts if Mary was able to travel her mother would have taken Mary back to Towie where Mary's mother Helen McGregor was born and then gave birth to Mary . . .

It is so much harder to find infomation in the more modern age - not least with a family through work moved around a lot - my task is now to find where Mary Laing Shaw was buried - Death 2nd Feb 1936 - anyone one meeting Mary on your travels to any Kirkyards in the area - it would be more than appericated - I have Mary's birth cert next on list to buy to get correct date of birth - it is registered as 1922 - but as I do not know what month Mary was born in - it could well be 1921 - Towie - Aberdeenshire - the family being at Kintore has totally thrown me here . . .
