Hi Kate and Pam,

Can't help with the Pittendreighs I'm afraid but just wanted to let you know about Aberdour...the Parish of Aberdour in Aberdeenshire is defined here http://www.urie.demon.co.uk/genuki/ABD/Aberdour/description.html

Elaine 

[KateW]

Thanks Elaine,
I have had a look at the website.  Now I will look at the map!It is Aber as in mouth of a river.  The Welsh for mouth of the river is also Aber.  My granny was Welsh hence the interest. 
What a lovely photo of your Granny, by the way!
Kate.

Hello Elaine

Had a look at  Aberdour very interesting the Pittendreighs all all the varients seem to live around Pitsligo,Tyrie King Edward area.

Kate,

It appears that your interest is in trying to find out more about Ann PITTENDREIGH.

Ann Pittendreigh married Donald Ross Whyte in Old Machar in 1840 and we know what happened to them after that time.   I understand she was born in about 1816 in Aberdour (not sure where that is) but we know nothing of her family.

In the interests of avoiding duplication of effort, I mention that this family is also being discussed on the Sutherland board at:
http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php/topic,243958

From the IGI on the FamilySearch site at:
http://www.familysearch.org
one finds two records of the marriage (or proclamation of banns).
Ann PITTENDREIGH & Donald WHYTE, 13 Jan 1840, Old Machar, Aberdeen
Ann PITTENDRICH & Donald WHYTE, 13 Jan 1840, St Nicholas, Aberdeen

Have you looked at these marriage/banns OPR records on the (pay per view) site ScotlandsPeople at:
http://www.scotlandspeople.gov.co.uk
They may well not provide any further clues but, if you haven't yet viewed them, you won't know unless and until you look at them.

Kate, 100% of the 1841 census for Aberdeenshire has been transcribed for FreeCEN at:
http://www.freecen.org.uk/
And over 75% of the 1851 has also been transcribed.
You may wish to search there yourself.

A search on that site for PITTEN* in 1841  brings up 119 results (spellings include PITTENDRICH, PITTENDRIGH, PITTENDRIECH, PITTENDREICH, PITTENDREIGH).  There are also 4 PETTENDRIGH and 1 PETTENDRIECH.  And a few other variations - PITENDRICH 6, PITENDREACH 1, PITENDRIGH 1 ...
There are also quite a few people of the name (however spelled) in 1851 - but very few with birthplace Aberdour.

Yes, there are parishes named Aberdour in both Aberdeen-shire
http://www.urie.demon.co.uk/genuki/ABD/Aberdour/index.html
and in Fife
http://www.genuki.org.uk/big/sct/FIF/parishes/Aberdour/index.htm
(I know this to my embarrassment as I once ordered in to my local LDS FHC the parish register for Aberdour ABD instead of Aberdour FIF!).

Regards,

JAP

Hi again Kate,

Continuing on with thoughts from my earlier post.

You seem to have, in a sense, the worst of both worlds    The marriage of Donald & Ann being in 1840 in Scotland, the only record would be in church registers - as statutory registration did not start in Scotland (unlike England & Wales) until 1855.  And the death of Ann was presumably in England (you say they moved south) so the death cert won't have the wonderful information (names of parents) which is on Scottish certificates 

If I were you (and if you haven't already done so), I would certainly go to the ScotlandsPeople site and look at the two OPR records for the marriage/banns.

However - I am wondering why you say that you understand that Ann was born ca 1816 in Aberdour?

From the census information posted by kind RootsChatters, it would seem that Ann was born ca 1813 in Aberdeen ...

There is a possibility in the IGI on FamilySearch.  It is under PITTENDREACH - which, unfortunately, is not combined in the IGI with PITTENDRIGH & variants.

It is the following (name of mother not given unfortunately!):
Anne PITTENDREACH, bap 17 April 1814, father James, St Nicholas, Aberdeen, Aberdeenshire.

St Nicholas is in the Parish of Aberdeen, and is where one of the marriage entries is.

So it might also be worth looking at this OPR birth/baptism record to see if there are any clues linking it to the marriage/banns records.

Regards,

JAP

JAP,
Thanks for your reply and interest.  I have a copy of the marriage entries for Old Machar where it states:
[/i]Donald Whyte, Cooper, Virginia Street in the Parish of St. Nicholas and Ann Pittendreigh, Westfield in this parish, signified their purpose of marriage, by Mr Alexr. McKenzie ***
& being thrice proclaimed, they were married on the 13th Jan 1840 by the Revd. Archibald (?) Cook Minister of North Church Inverness.
Thanks for the pointer to Freecen pages, I will have a search.
Kate.

Have just received your new message.

Firstly - I seem to have written confusing info!  Donald and Ann did not as far as we know move south, their son John moved to Croydon where he married in 1866.  His neighbour in the 1881 census was George Pittendreigh (just been sent that by down-under along with lots more- brilliant!)

Secondly - not sure why I put 1816 Aberdour - had it as a query along with 1813 Aberdeen - should have checked it out!

To be honest, I only knew about this Scottish connection about a week ago & have been so flooded by information from kind, generous peoplethat I need to have a good sort out to underatand it all!!

Thanks again, Kate.

[JAP]

Hi again Kate,

Well, if you can find the death of Ann (PITTENDRIGH) WHYTE in Scotland, you might well get the name and occupation of her father and the name and maiden surname of her mother.

Well worth a search on ScotlandsPeople!
