Without names & birthyears etc I doubt anybody would know

1901 Scottish census has 150 entries for surname Shand in Banffshire - none of whom were born in Methlick.   14 Shand's living in Methlick in 1901

More info please?

The Methlick tree on familysearch goes back to about 1685

Thank you all for the info! I have found DNA distant connections to a couple of Shands in Banffshire and the same for Methlick/Rathen Shands. Trying to figure out where they broke off from each other. My 4x G Great Granfather was John Shand b1713 in Methlick. His son William moved to Rathen at some point and married Isabel Bruce and had his children there.
