FINDLAYs in Forres
« on: Wednesday 30 December 09 03:39 GMT (UK) »
I am interested in hearing from anyone who has a link to James FINDLAY and his wife Margaret BROWN, married in Forres in 1748.
Children were-
Isabel born 1749
Jean born 1751
William born 1755
James born 1758
John born 1761
Margaret born 1763
Elizabeth/Bathia born 1764.

James was a baker in the town and Margaret Brown's father was John Brown.  James Findlay owned property in what is now Caroline St, Forres, where he had his bakehouse and lodgings.

William married Isabella McPherson and had at least 2 children, Margaret and James.  William moved to Grantown where he was also a baker.
Elizabeth/Bathia married Lewis Anderson-she was also a baker and ran the business in Forres.
Don't know anything else definite about the other children.
