My name is Scott Shand. I'm currently looking for information on my Shand side of the family.
Shand/Bruce/Lawre(a)nce/Cardo.. Information, Joseph b1790 & Willam Shand b1750
Here is my public tree. Shand Family Tree-Scotland I just started it but it has a lot details.
https://www.ancestry.com/family-tree/tree/152424518/familyPlease let me know if have any information. Here is my email.
(*)I'm trying to get information to confirm the below Joseph Shand is my GGGG Grandfather Joseph Shand who died in Noyan, Quebec in 1861. I have him born in 1790 in Scotland on a 1861 Canadian census record. He is a ghost in Scotland after he is baptized. I have my GGGG Grandfather Joseph Shand getting married in Montreal to Ann Yule family from Scotland in 1826. She dies in 1826. He then marries Janet/Jessie Shand from Scotland in Montreal in the same church in 1830. From there I have Joseph on birth and death certs for his children until 1861 when he dies.
The hardest part about the Shand's in Rathen during that time period is that all the males died or left. William and John died in infancy, Robert had one child, a daughter who I have as not married and Joseph left. The Shand line in that area dies. His sisters, Eleanora, Jean and Mary marry into families that were or are still there. Eleanora married John Lawrance/Lawrence, Jean married William Bannerman and Mary married George Cardno.
Thank you very much for any help!!!
Joseph Shand had a William Shand as a witness at both of his weddings. It could have been a cousin? His father had already passed away in Scotland. I can't get any other info on Joseph's parents except what I have below.
