Aberdeenshire / Bain Family Aberdeen
« on: Wednesday 11 June 25 12:16 BST (UK)  »
Trying to piece together anything nore on the below people

Peter William Bisset Bain, Born 1872, Died 1954. States he was Single.  He was a tea planter in India and in 1903 was mentioned a few times through a court case

Margaret Keith Bain Dies 1952

Elizabeth Hampton Bain, died  1960

All seem to be tied to Allermuir, 40 Craigton Road, Aberdeen. They owned properties in Summerfield Terrance and Holburn Street Aberdeen.

All may have come from Derbyshire

A picture has been found

Just working with the source on the price (newspaper). Bargaining with the fact I have provided the paper with photos and helicopter flights in the past.

The photo is from 1978, but didn't appear in the press.

This will help my book greatly in securing the picture!

Did have a possible picture in the papers from 1964 I think it was a teachers reunion, but the scan is poor.  I did get in touch with the press archives, but they don't have the original. My contact there is going to look for any specific pics.

The Aberdeen archives are moving, and they will not be about until the end of the month.

originally in the section in my published book I had it as a few one liners, but have now expanded it into a section on Sybil alone.   This is for my "superbooK" as it will cover books 1 and 2 in a single book.

The search goes on........

Yes, done a fair bit of research on Sybil

Lacking (1) photos of Sybil

(2) reason Bertram went to USA, and it appears never came back or nobody from the family visited.

(3) reason for Sybil to go to USA in 1956 - New jersey, when Father died in 1953

Trying to find what happened to a Bertram Glanville Spicer of Aberdeen.

He was on the 1911 Census, but not the 1921 Census - The family are listed, not Betrram

Listed on a 1905 valuation, roll, thats where trail is cold.  WW1 was possible but no CWGC or Scotlands People Death (so may have been overseas?)

Can anybody help?
