Family History Beginners Board / FREDERICK AUGUSTUS FRASER men, I can not find! Help!
« on: Friday 10 November 17 23:14 GMT (UK) »
Can someone help me? I am STUCK!
Looking for 2 different FREDERICK AUGUSTUS FRASER men, father and son - details below -
Looking for my GGG grandad, and my GGGG grandad, BOTH named FREDERICK AUGUSTUS FRASER! - both born in Scotland.
I have various bits of information which i have found, and printed, but i am struggling to find the birth of both, and the death of one of them. I will post here the info i do have in the hope that someone may recognise them!
The older Frederick,-
I can NOT find his BIRTH! Parents = SYMON FRASER, soldier, born Ardersier 7/5/1809 & MARY USHER, born Ireland - birth and death unknown & their marriage unknown.
Per 1861 census born C 1815, Ardersier, (Campbelltown per 1851 census),
Died 03/07/1866, Dundee, aged 44 it says, a watchmaker (and per 1851 census).
Per his daughter, Lucy's birth cert he was an insurance agent in 1863 (and also in 1861 census = agent for a burial society)
He married CATHERINE FALCONER on 29/08/1841 in Abbotshall.
Their children = Espet Fraser (Born C1842), Margaret Fraser (Born C1846 Laurencekirk), Catherine Fraser (Born C1853), Charles Fraser (Born C1855 Old Machar), Mary Ann Fraser (Born C1858 Old Machar), Elizabeth Fraser (Born C1861 Inverness), Lucy Fraser (Born 9/8/1863 Inverness) and the other Frederick Augustus Fraser - who i will detail below.
The younger Frederick -
I can NOT find his BIRTH or DEATH!
Per 1861 Census, born Inverness (not sure if Beauly or Kilmorack?!)
He was a railway hammerman, per his son's birth in 1886 (yet another Frederick Augustus Fraser, but he only lived 8 hours)
I know that he was 35 (according to marriage cert) when he married FLORA CROSS on 13/8/1886 in Inverness. Per the marriage cert it says he was a railway striker.
Frederick and Flora had a son WILLIAM CROSS FRASER (born 1887) who married MARGARET PATIENCE - i know all of the details from this point.
I would be very grateful if anyone can help! Thanks in advance, and many thanks for taking the time to read such a long post!
