Durward/Dorward...complete
« on: Wednesday 15 September 04 21:42 BST (UK) »
Hello!
 i'm trying to find information on"Robina Durward", born 1870, Kincardine, her parents were William and Jessie,
i have her listed on the 1881 cencus aged 11,but after this i have no trace of Robina ,just her parents ect.
I believe she had an older sister named Mary (5 years older).
I have managed to find out about most of her brothers,but a bit rusty on one called David...up till 1913 he worked in Stracathro as a farm worker/gardener. by 1919 he was in Dundee,after 1-2 years dissapeared (he'd be about 40 then)....thanks snowolf

Hi There,
I have Dorwards in my tree from this area.  My Auntie Nellie Welsh c 1906 married Robert Dorward and had a son David.   They all lived in Bervie.  Is this of any help?  I can try and get more info if you are still looking.

\Regards,
Lynda
