John Hastie of Portmoak, Scotlandwell

[joelparks]

Kindly seeking info John Hastie; already have his passing record from the Registry Office.
John was born in Monimail in 1839 and passed in Portmoak, Scotlandwell on 7 Jul 1914. He was the son of William and Boswell Young. His passing was attested by his son John.
Any family info, or if lucky, a gravestone record would be nice. Norrie, I've already asked.
THANK YOU!

Hi

Just checking first:
Do you already have any of the 1841-1901 Census info on John snr or his parents?

Cheers

John Hastie b 1839 Monimail married Agnes Dowie (b 1838 Rathillet d 23 Dec 1905 St Andrews), d in 07 Jul 1914 Portmoak, Scotlandwell, by Registry document. In writing this, St. Andrews has not been thoroughly reviewed for burials. It is evident that they traveled across Fife a bit, making this more of a challenge.

Census:
1871: Monimail
1891: Cupar

John's children:
William Dowie Hastie b Monimail 09 Jun 1863 d 22 Jun 1942 Falkland 1866 Cupar, burial known. He was a gamekeeper and frequented the Falkland Estate.
David b 1866 Cupar, no further info.
John b 1866 Cupar, no further info.

John was the son of William Hastie (19 Jan 1800- 04 May 1878 Dunbog) and Boswell Young (b 07 Sep 1800, Blinkbonny, Abdie, d 27 Nov 1872 Collairnie (near Dunbog.)) William's occupation was ploughman until his latter days when served as Sexton/Beadle at Dunbog Church. He passed in the Dunbog Schoolhouse which was also the Beadle's home. The current retired Beadle of the now disused Dunbog Church did not have info on William. Researching this physically, it appears that this building is in the modern day hamlet of Glenduckie, which is in site of Dunbog. William married Boswell Young in Auchtermuchty 07 Jun 1822. William or Boswell's burials have not been located and are of interest. The wonderful Norrie does not have records of these.

Thank You for your attention on this!

Hi again

For ref: In 1881, John & Agnes are in Cupar with their 2 sons:
John 15, Farm boy, b Cupar
David 11, Scholar, b Logie

John jnr's birth is on the IGI as 27 Nov 1865 Cupar
David's birth is on the IGI  as 10 Sep 1869, Logie.

In Census 1891, John jnr is boarding with his married brother William at Rathillet Cottage, Kilmany.
In Census 1891, David is probably the one working as a farm servant in Leuchers Fife.

In Census 1901, John jnr is / probably a ploughman in Kettle Fife, married with 2 children

I can dee William & Boswell in the Fife Census: 1841 (Letham, Monimail), 1851 (Star Dalginch, Kennoway), 1861 (Dunfermline). 1871 (Dunbog)

And their son John, aside from the 1871 & 1891 you mention, in Fife Census: 1841 and 1851 with parents, 1861 as a servant (Leuchers), 1881 (Cupar), 1901 (St Andrews &St Leonards).

Happy to post up transcripts of any these Census if you should require them, just let us know.  The 1841 though, can be found transcribed here:
