Canada / Re: Charles Robertson, Monymusk to Montreal
« on: Saturday 22 October 16 14:38 BST (UK)  »
Hello,
I appreciate that some time has passed since this family discussion took place but I am most interested to hear how the Robertsons fared in Canada. William Robertson and Jean Donald were my great great grand parents..
Could you advise me where Alexander Robertson b 1843 fits in the tree. His wife was Sarah.

Any thing you can share would be most appreciated.

Many thanks

Susan

Yep! David and Sophie it is and from Fortrose. Wonder why changed to Mckiddie whilst living in Moray........
Problem is ... For others, not me ..........they have the wrong David on their trees.

Thanks for keeping observations relevant.

David had a brother George who was a witness. My David had a brother George who lived in Banff and could have come to Elgin for marriage.
My David 's mother 's full name is the same as is his father's names except changed to Mckiddie on marriage cert.
Certain as I am going to get.
Thanks

David has changed the family name to Mckiddie from Mckeddie but his parents have correct first names -- David and Sophie McKenzie and Same trade of shoemaker- to fit with my tree. In previous ancestry cert place of origin of David was Fortrose..... Same.

Am I on firm ground to go with my David and not the David from Glamis born 2 months  previously as the other trees have done?

Thanks for unbiased guidance.

Ross & Cromarty / David Mckeddie/ Mckiddie 1832
« on: Tuesday 16 February 16 20:41 GMT (UK)  »
Am I missing correct link?
I have DAVID Mckeddie b (28 Dec )1832 m Barbara Bowers ( marriage cert says David comes from Fortrose)  on 28 Jan 1859. They then go to Canada where David changes name to  Mckiddie.
On Ancestry the trees there have the David born 22 August 1832 and coming from Glamis.
I cannot see connection as 'my' David was from Fortrose .
Anyone like to point out the errors of my ways.

Thank you

Hi,
My connection to this thread is through a Marjory Munro born 1728. I am hoping that I can connect her to this family.
Marjory married a James Symon 1753. Daughter Mary married  Garden from Rannachie.
Can you link to Marjory?
Look forward to any comments

Happy to be kept in the loop re Munroes as there must be a connection as we appear to be talking about the exact piece of ground!
