Aberdeenshire / Re: WATSON/SHEWAN - Peterhead

Not sure if this will be any help to you, but there is another David Shewan in this line of my family, he's David Walker Shewan who is the grandson of David Shewan and Janet/Jessie Thomson.  This David Walker Shewan is the son of David and Janet's son William Shewan (who married Helen Walker) and David Walker Shewan emigrated to Canada.

Hi belliot, you are definitely on the wrong track, David Shewan and Jessie Thomson are my 3x Great Grandparents and their daughter Margaret (Maggie) Shewan is my 2x Great Grandmother. Glendavenny is correct in that John Keir Shewan (Keir not Kerr) married Rebekah Walker in Peterhead in 1872.

Hi Sandie,

John Scott, reputed son of James Scott and Jane McKenzie, is my Great Grandmother, Annie Scott's twin brother. I recognised the address in New Pitsligo and the children Maggie Rennie and Alexander Mutch.

Hi Glendaveny,

Many thanks for your reply, Glendaveny.  I've been concentrating my research on the Watson/Shewan lines from my 3x Great Grandparents, David Shewan and Janet/Jessie Thompson, during the last year, as my Watson family were very elusive!  I haven't researched back from David Shewan as yet.  I have his parents as John Shewan and Elizabeth Smith, but haven't verified that yet, so I would be very interested in any information on David Shewan's ancestry.  I can PM you with my email address if you like.  Are you a descendant of my GGG Grandfather, David Shewan, also?

Thanks, Lee, but it would be a good idea to email any new info to the webmaster at mutches.com, his name's Harry and he'll be more than pleased to add it to the website.

I often stay up too late too...it's addictive this genealogy stuff, isn't it?!   ;)

You're welcome, Lee, I've found it very helpful for my Mutch family.

So before I try to trace Mary Mutch and her parents, I am trying to find the link between the surname Charles, and why he moved the names around.....

Thank you so much, Lee

Thanks, weasel1.  As yet I can't see any obvious connection to yours and Marcie's Hutcheons, but I'll keep the info from both of you for future reference.
