Title: Alexander Innes born 1808
Post by: Tomnamuidh on Monday 29 July 13 03:51 BST (UK)
Someone had posted a message for Alexander Innes born in 1808 but cannot find it now, so here goes:

Alexander Innes was born in 1808 the only child of William Innes and ??Grant. I believe this was in Inveravon, Banff, Scotland. William Innes remarried and this time it was with Janet Cameron.

The person who made the posting said that her link was with the daughter of Alexander Innes named Anne.

I would like to get in touch with anyone who might be linked to this family .

Hi William , welcome to RootsChat  :)

I've moved your post from Scotland Resources to the Banffshire board.
Can't easily see the post to which you refer however there is this reference on Familysearch/IGI -

Hopefully someone connected will see this post.

William, did you get my message in which I drew your attention to

http://www.geograph.org.uk/gridref/NJ1924 ?

As someone has taken the trouble to walk up there and photograph the buildings, it would be good to know that you have seen them.

Freereg have comprehensive records on Inveravon including this 1809 baptismal entry:

County   Banffshire
Place   Inveravon
Church   Inveravon
RegisterNumber   
DateOfBirth   
BaptismDate   16 Nov 1809
Forename   Alexander
Sex   M
FatherForename   William
MotherForename   Penuel
FatherSurname   INNES
MotherSurname   INNES
Abode   Easter Corries
FatherOccupation   
Notes   Wit: Alex'r Baillie there & Charles Innes, Beloan

They don't have an 1808 but SP have one for William Innes and Margaret Grant.  They also have the 1809 which appears to be between William Innes and Penuel Innes.  Don't have any credits to be sure.
