Moray (Elginshire) / Re: DEAN - research from Australia
« on: Tuesday 13 December 16 13:51 GMT (UK) »
I am 25 years old and live in the Scottish borders, my granddad john dean stays in Urquhart, Moray. I have just started researching my family line, and so far from my granddads side i have managed to get back a few generations, a name popped up, Bathia Dean. i found this from a copy of the death record of my great great granddad John Dean who passed away in 1921, Bathia was his mother. i was unsure of the spelling of her maiden name so googled her marriage name hoping i would find something and this forum was one of the first things to pop up. I remember being shown a letter we received many years ago from relatives in Sydney, Australia.
Hopefully Carol will see this as it would be great to get in touch and find out if she sent the letter.
Also the photo of the ruins of Easter Oakend Farm, my granddad took me there years ago. I could never remember where it was or what it looked like but that brought back a flood of memories!
Anyway, Hopefully Carol will reply. back to researching for me just now though!
