John Lawrence and Christina(ian) Duncan
« on: Wednesday 08 March 06 10:02 GMT (UK) »
Dear Group

Trying to trace John Lawrence a farm labourer of Banffshire/Moray area and his spouse, Christina and their children. 

Does anyone know of Christina  Duncan who married John Lawrence in Aberlour Banffshire on 23 August 1823.   

They had a daughter Ann born 24 April 1832 in Rothes who married a joiner,  John Gerrie of Keith in 1854. 

They had  two sons, Alexander born  Sept 1829 in Rothes and his older brother James March 1827

Christina/Christian Lawrence died in Fife Keith 29 March 1866.  She was at that time “above 80”.  I do not know when John died or the fate of any of their sons. 

Can anyone help?

Many thanks

I see that you have cross-posted this to Banffshire and Moray. See my reply in Banffshire.
Never trust anything you find online (especially submitted trees and transcriptions on Ancestry, MyHeritage, FindMyPast and other commercial web sites) unless it's an image of an original document - and even then be wary because errors can and do occur.
