Title: Skakel and Hay of Cullen
Post by: cathb on Tuesday 28 December 10 00:26 GMT (UK)

I am researching the family of William Skakel and Jean Hay. (married 1705)
William became a burgess of Cullen, and Jean's father was called Andrew. Was he one of the Hays of Rannes or Mountblairy or another family. Can anyone help?

Hi

I have an Isabel Skakel from Banff in my tree as my 6th Great Grandmother, she married George Andrew on 16 November 1750 in Banff and had my 5th Great Grandmother on Jean Andrew on 25 June 1761.  I have been trying to find Isabel's mother and father but i have a funny feeling it could be William Skakel and Jean Hay as they had a child called Isabel Skakel in Cullen and none of the other matches have the same spelling of surname or are years out with the dates.   

Thanks  :)
