Title: MARR family, Auchterless
Post by: maldoh on Monday 13 September 10 15:37 BST (UK)
I am the grandson of Jessie Ogston Slessor, who was the 2nd cousin once removed of James William Slessor Marr.  My great-grandfather, Jessie's father, was Alexander Slesser, of Milton of Fisherie, Aberdeenshire.  JWS Marr is my 3rd cousin, once removed.  I am looking for information about James's immediate family.  I know the identities of his parents and grandparents, but I would like to know more about his brothers and sister.  I have some information about his marriage and his children, but a lot of the details about his family are difficult to find.  Perhaps someone could help me.  I live in Australia.  My grandmother emigrated to Australia after WWI and married my Australian grandfather on 4 March 1921 in Melbourne.
