Fordyce: Hi thank you for your message. I had a look at my emails and you are correct I didn't reply and that was very rude of me and I apologise.  You finding his burial was fantastic and you are quite right its not his death. I didn't mean to make others go over the same ground its just that finding Ewen's parents names is very frustrating and I thought other people may have some ideas that I hadn't thought of.
I think everything has been exhausted so I shall let it be.
Once again thank you.

Forfarian: Thank you very much for your assistance and I will follow up with your leads. Very much appreciated. Yes Margaret is the daughter of John Russel and Janet Laurence. I have tried locating a birth for Ewan to no avail.
Thank again.

Hi
I have a marriage of Anne Badenoch to Alexander Mackay on 8/8/1850 at Deskford. 1851 census had them farming at Oathillock. Anne died 2/11/1889.
Her parents were David Badenoch (Shoemaker) and Margaret Adam.

I am researching my Mackay family history and saw the name of Badenoch. Happy to share info of generations further down. :)

Hi

I have found who I think is my 3rd GG- Ewen/Ewan/Even McKay or Mackay.
He died  21/12/1842 at Boggierow. Can't find a headstone for him.
I am trying to confirm that this man is the father of the following:
John  b1820 Cullen
Janet b1821 Fordyce
Anne b 1824 Fordyce
William b 1826 Fordyce
Alexander b 1828 Fordyce
Ewan b 1830 Fordyce
Margaret b 1832 Fordyce
Peter b 1837 Fordyce
Joseph b 1837 Fordyce
Jane b 1841 Deskford

The wife of Ewen is Margaret Russel b 1819 & d 1865. They were married 1819 Deskford.
I am also trying to find out his parents names so I can keep going back to further generations.

Is someone able to assist me I would be very grateful?
Thanking you in advance.

Jo Mackay
