Re Peter McBean
The info I have from Ancestry.com lists the Parish number as 96B in the civil parish of Duuthil and the address as Polchar Cottage and Occupation as Ag Lab and this was from the 1851 census.  The members of the family were Angus McBean (63), Mary McBean (58), Alexander McBean (32), Peter McBean 28, Angus McBean 26, Jane McBean (18) and Catherine McBean(11). 
I was directed to that information by Ancestry.com when I researched my grandfather's information from Southern Ontario, Canada.  My grandfather's information matched. From a small diary of family  information written by my deceased aunt I have the following information.  Peter McBean married Jean Coutts  on Feb 28, 1855 in Canada.The diary states that Peter McBean was born in Rockym...(I would have to go back to your previous email to see the spelling of the place).  The diary says that he and his brothers Lewis & James landed in New York April 7th, 1852 came to Sarnia, Ontario via Albany, Buffalo,and Cleveland.They lived in Lampton County, Bear Creek.Jean Coutts was born in Canada and the McBeans moved to Rideville, Manitoba, Canada in 1882.  The family were scattered and just the younger members were on the farm.  Later Peter McBean & Jean McBean moved to Emerson about 1900 where Peter McBean died about 1906 or 1907.  Jean McBean died in March 1922.  The rest of the information I have is on the children of John McBean - Peter's son.

McBean - Peter born about 1823 - I believe this is my great grandfather.  I believe he was born in Alvie and immigrated to Canada via New York between 1848 -  1851.  My grandfather was born in Southern Ontario.  One relative has written that Peter had a twin Louisand that they were born in Rockymus..Kas..in the Highlands.  I am visiting Aviemore at the end of April and would like to make the most of the 1 day I have there.  Any information would be helpful.
