Just came upon this post which is now dated, but I will ask the question....

I have IRVINE on my gr.mother's side going back to the 17 century in New Deer. Specifically,
Georg IRVINE, b. ca.1655
William IRVINE, b. 1680
Alexander IRVINE, b. 1707
Alexander IRVINE, b. 1735

-all of New Deer, Aberdeenshire. I have other more detailed info regarding spouses and descendants, but was wondering if any of the names/dates might coincide with anyone's research. Another Alexander (#3) emigrated to Quebec, Canada.  I have many of his descendant's info, but can't trace much back to previous generations in New Deer (where they might be buried or to other info regarding their past.).
I am in Canada and don't have easy access to many of their records. In particular, their church affiliation that would (might) contain the only records from that period.

Thanking anyone in advance that may be of assistance..
