My great grandmother was Christina R. SEIVWRIGHT, born 1882 in Cullen,
Banffshire, Scotland to Alexander SEIVWRIGHT & Ann GORDON.
I have just discovered that before she was married to my
great-grandfather, she had a son illegitimately. His name was (is?)
Alexander Sievewright CUMMING (the father was William Brodie CUMMING
born 16 May 1874 in Fordyce, Banff, Scotland to George CUMMING &
Margaret STEVENSON). Alexander was known as "Sandy" and he was born 13
September 1902 at Seafield, Rathven, Banffshire. I had always just
thought that "Sandy" was the long-lost older (full) brother of my
grandfather, therefore had the BARRON surname.
Christina married Alexander Walker BARRON on 2 June 1905 at Rathven,
Banffshire and they had several children, including my grandfather,
George Brian Tore BARRON, born 24 December 1914 in Pennan Village,
Aberdour, Aberdeen.
Alexander Walker & Christina R. (Seivwright) BARRON and all of their
children, except "Sandy" left Scotland and settled in Toronto, Ontario,
Canada about 1922/23.
They kept in touch with "Sandy" until the years during WWII, when they
lost contact.
If anyone has any info at all on my grandfathers long-lost
half-brother, or how I could go about finding what happened to him
please contact me.
Thanks!
