Title: What happened to Penelope BEATTIE from Benholm?
Post by: angusg on Saturday 24 December 11 01:18 GMT (UK)

her father William BEATTIE, a farmer, named her in his will
as my daughter Penelope married to Andrew M?r?r?t carrier in Bervie.

William Beattie died June 1854, his wife Isobel KENNEDY died May 1857
both at Brawliemuir, Benholm.

Another daur Helen was married to John Wilson at nearby Craig-head.
the eldest son Charles BEATTIE assumed the running of the farm on his fathers death.

Can any one assist in finding Penelope's whereabouts such as BDM ?
