Margaret Chrystall Gray
« on: Thursday 15 November 12 01:00 GMT (UK) »
Margaret was my aunt by marriage to my mother's brother Edward George Hazel.  She was born 5Oct1904 in Ballater, daughter of Alexander Gray and Jane Rutherford Singer Pyper.  I have a connection to a Gray family and a Chrystall family on my father's side, also from Aberdeenshire and I am wondering if there is any connection between/amongst these Grays and Chrystalls.

Jane Gray was the daughter of James Gray and Anne Middleton and was born in Udny 11Dec1802.  Jane Chrystall married Jane Gray's brother, James.  Jane C. was the daughter of William Chrystall and Jane Stewart, born 9Sep1802 in Foveran.  James was born 26Feb1803 in Udny and married on 23Jul1837.   Jane Gray married John Buchan of Logie Buchan, born 1801, on 12Jul1823.  They are my 2X paternal great-grandparents.

Chrystall struck me as a very modern middle name when I first found it, but it is only now that I found the Chrystall family that I realized it is probably a surname.

Not been on this site for ages but I have some Chrystals from the Foveran area. My lot go back to approx 1740 so far.

I have a William Chrystal b c1770 but i havent followed his line yet as my branch goes through his sister Jean b c1765.

their parents were John Chrystal and Margaret Hay.

A William Chrystal Dalgarno was born 28 April 1854 in the parish of Slains.He was the son of James Dalgarno, a commercial clerk, and his wife Elizabeth Chrystall. She may be connected to your Chrystal line, as Foveran is not very far from Slains.
