Further investigation shows that he started business in Buckie about 1878 and his original premises were in Baron Street. They were altered and extended in May 1883.

I've been looking for twins in Buckie (Rathven) in the 1901 censu! using some of the surnames in Jim's post but, so far, none. the 1911 Scotish census costs. I've also found that Buckie seems to have carnivals in December
