Title: William Matheson and family; Fodderty Scotland
Post by: BASSA on Sunday 27 October 13 02:14 GMT (UK)
Anyone able to assist please ?
From Scotlandspeople I have obtained death certificate/document of William Matheson born 12 June 1801 and died 31 October 1876, Pyramid Cottage 18 George Street Fodderty.
He was a Burg Officer, Policeman, Court Sheriff Officer and a Court Supervisor.
His parents documented here are William and Cath Matheson nee McKenzie.
I established this William was born 26 June 1783 at Rogie Fodderty and have a sketch of the alleged house they lived in as tenant farmers for a Alexander McKenzie until the land clearances came into effect. This line of Matheson aka Mathison, Mathieson are my third Great Grandparents.
I do not seem to be able to find Cath or Catherine McKenzie listed in Scotlandspeople or Familysearch and a genealogy researcher at Dingwall was most helpful but alas was unable to help also.
Cath Matheson nee McKenzie is alleged born 1784 Contin Ross and Cromarty.
Anyone able to help please ? 
Thank you.
