Hi DD

Thanks to you and Kenjo I have unearthed - not literally I might add - another Ann Hunter, also illegitimate born 1819 @ Kildrummy and first cousin to the Ann Hunter of this posting.

Problem is this second Ann has also disappeared, so now I'm looking for two Anns, both illegitimate and born within four years of each other @ Kildrummy!!!!!

In view of the above I double-checked Helen in 1861 census, she was enumerated as granddaughter by the then head of household Margaret, widow of Alexander who was Anns father.

Whoever said genealogy wasn't exciting............

More problems  
Never mind, the 1861 will be on SP, then you will be able to check and see if the Bairds were around at that time.  If alive, they
could have been in another Parish -  anywhere in Scotland - anywhere - who knows    
Fingers crossed for the 1861 census - sure it won't be too long before SP have it online.    DD

Hi Dkmcad,

Thank you, already had dates of death for James, Robert and Helen but not Robert Fraser.

Have found out their daughter Jane (born 1890) married in 1916 @ Auchindoir - maybe she was responsible for the MI

Thanks again
