Hi Grierson,
The following may be of interest to you and anyone else researching the Reid family living on the Aldie Estate, Fossoway.
I found an online newspaper article on the Australian website Trove. The article is in the Newcastle Morning Herald + Miners' Advocate, dated 19 January 1887.
The article refers to Mr John Reid, native of the parish of Fossoway, Perthshire, living in Canada. His residence for many years had been on the 'Aldes Estate' (as written in article) 'Aldie Estate' in Perthshire, where his "forebears" his maternal ancestors had been since A.D. 1250. These maternal ancestors where named Robertson and had occupied the farm of East Hilton.
Trove is a free website and all articles can be viewed in full online. I have added the links below :-
