Hi there RootsChatters
I hope, that by posting this on the Angus (Forfarshire) Forum, I'll be able to get a bit of assistance with knocking down another wee brick wall that has suddenly appeared.
Robina Bruce was born 3 Sep 1871 in Brechin, Forfarshire and died on 21 Mar 1947 in Yonkers, Westchester County, New York, USA. She married CAPTAIN DUNCAN MCKENZIE son of Duncan Mckenzie and Mary Ann McMillan, on 26 Feb 1909 in Wood's Rooms, Dundee, Forfarshire. Duncan was born on 19 May 1871 in Peterhead, Aberdeenshire and surely died before 1926 which was the year when Robina - a widow - remarried HUGH HAY RUXTON on 30 Mar 1926 at 49 Lyon Street, Dundee, Forfarshire. Robina was born on 7 Dec 1869 at 33 Fisher Acre, Parish of St Vigeans, Arbroath, Forfarshire and died on 2 Oct 1939 in Yonkers, Westchester County, New York, USA.
The Board of Trade issued Duncan with his Certificate of Competency No.025642 as 'Second Mate' at Dundee on 20 August 1892, as 'First Mate' at Dundee on 19 May 1894 and as 'Master of a Goreign-going ship' at Dundee on 6 June 1896.
The last information I have for Duncan is his address in Feb 1909, 5 Castle Street, Peterhead, Aberdeenshire, from the Register of Marriage.
Duncan died - possibly in Dundee - before 1926, but I can't find any record of a death for him.
Can anyone help?
Regards
