[Swally]

Hi Guys,

I am looking for info on Alexander Allan born 24th February 1882 to Lessel Allan & Mary McIntosh Allan at Auchindoir, Aberdeenshire.  It is beleived he went to South Africa in the early 1900s.  He comes from a right tribe of kids.
I have lots of info on the Allan's of Aberdeen, Inverurie, Huntly & Auchindoir including a whole bundle of info on the ones who went to Canada & America.

If you have any info on this guy drop me a line please,

Hi Swally

I am the Great Granddaughter of Alfred Allan, a son of Mary McIntosh's and Lessel Stephen Allan.  I was wondering if you could help me with my research (could be wrong, I am a beginner) shows Lessel's parents as Alexander Allan and Jane Middleton and Alexander's parents and Jean and James Allan, although I have seen on a website as Alexander's wife's name recorded as Isabel Jamieson.   Any help would be much appreciated.

Sara,

I have sent you a personal meaasage.

But here goes anyway -

Lessel & Mary were married December 10th at Milton, Auchindoir in 1881.
Lessel was aged 18 and Mary 23 years of age.  Lessel was a farm servant and she was a domestic servant.  Lessel's father was a Alexander Allan a farm servant, his mother Jane Allan had a middle name of Middleton.
Mary's parents were, Adam McIntosh a crofter and Jane (m.s. Law) the witnesses were John Reid and Eliza McIntosh.
