John Barclay
« on: Monday 13 November 17 22:03 GMT (UK) »
I have John Barclay b 16. March 1854 at Pitsligo son of Peter Barclay and Mary MacDonald
I cannot find him his birth in Scotland people or find a grave .I found most the family in find a grave with some lovely granite headstones and monuments
I have him the youngest child of Peter and Mary .....Mary died on 2. November 1854 aged 35 so Peter was left with a young family he remarries in 1856 ...
Some of the boys emigrated to America where they started off The Barclay Brothers Granite Works in Vermont its worth a Google to see how well they did and to see how this family got on they have lovely monuments and headstones
In Curios Fox someone has added that John went too and finished around Schenectady New York around 1880 in find a grave I found a John Barclay headstone but the dates don't fit in with him
Please can John be found
Regards
Elizabeth

Aspin, you will not find a birth certificate for John as he was born in 1854. He was baptised 2nd May 1854 in the parish of Pitsligo. You should be able to view this in the Old Parish Records on Scotlandspeople.

Just pointing out that you can view 1841-71 Aberdeenshire censuses on Freecen. There's no need to use up your credits!
