Hi. I have many ancestors from Banff, mainly Forbes. Would you be able to tell me what references there are to the Forbes surname within the book? We have no photographs from that era. Thank you.

Hello The Seeker
I have an Annie Ingram Forbes in my research,married in MacDuff, 1887 to John R Gordon. Does this match up with your tree?

Hello Far Away,

I've had a look and I cannot seem to find a match. There could be a link somewhere but it might be further back than I have currently researched.

Yours faithfully,

If the book covers the Banffshire area in general would you be kind enough to check for the names Morrison, Lobban and Donald please?  My main interest is Grange area of Banffshire.  Also interested in any help on how to go about getting a photograph of Brambleburn Farm there.  It was bulldozed a couple of years back and Morrison descendants are desperate to see what their ancestral home looked like.  Any help at all would be much appreciated. 

Kind regards

Karen

It might be worth getting in touch with the architects for the new Brambleburn house as they would probably have taken photos of the site before it was cleared.
