Perthshire / Re: Seaton's in Blair Atholl Perthshire 1800 and beyond
« on: Thursday 20 September 12 08:18 BST (UK)  »
I've been trying to draw up some sort of tree for Ian, but he's so vague!  It must be a man thing!  I lose count of how many aunties and uncles he had, to be honest, and of course, I never met any of his family, not even Donald, because I didn't meet him until 2005, and his mother had died in 2001, his father in the 1970s, and all the other aunts, uncles and cousins, except for Donny, who died in 2007, but Ian no longer lives in Scotland, he's been "down south" since the early 1980s.  He has to be in the mood to reminisce about his childhood on the farm, and then I can write down names!

Hello, Fiona!  Ian actually knows very little about any of his relatives outside his immediate family.  I know that his father had several siblings, brothers and sisters, but none of them seemed to have many children!  I've always felt that there would be further flung cousins, but I'll need to grill him about his uncles and aunts a bit more first!

Hello!  My partner is Ian Seaton, son of John Cameron Seaton and Jean (Jane) McKenzie Seaton.  He grew up at Port of Tummel in Ballinluig.  To the best of his knowledge, his more immediate family are now all gone, the last to pass away being his cousin, Donald Seaton, in 2007.  Do these names mean anything to anyone? 

Regards,
Catherine.
