Hi

I am trying to find out what happened to Alexander Scott christened 11.02.1799 Kirktown, Tyrie. he had a brother John born 1802 & a sister Elizabeth born 1800. Their parents were Alexander Scott & Christian Pyper.
I can't find anything definite in the 1841 census. However Alexander does not appear in his father's will written in 1840 approx. Alexander Scott is a very common name sadly.
The family lived in Aberdour, Aberdeenshire as well.

I would appreciate any help or info.

Hi, any luck yet? I am a descendant of his brother, John SCOTT.

Hi everyone,

I was wondering if anyone had an information or suggestions as to where I can go from here in my search. I have been researching my SCOTT family tree and traced it back to John SCOTT who married Rachel Paterson in 1850. It is shown in Scotland's People in the King Edward Parish on June 2, 1850 and the New Deer Parish on June 13, 1850.  In the census of 1851, 1861 it shows her birthplace as New Deer. On Rachel's death cert. it shows her parents as ----PATERSON (refuted/reputed father) and Barbara IRONSIDE (domestic servant). I have gone back and searched for her birth and can find nothing. According to her death cert she would have been born in 1825 and I have widened my search from 1820-1830. There are 5 Rachel Paterson born in that time, none with the mother as a Barbara and none in Aberdeenshire. I also tried Rachel Ironside and there are none from 1820-1830.

I also have gone through freecen and freereg and familysearch. Turned up nothing. Any ideas??? Anyone else researching this line??

Hello scottiegirl44,

Do you have John SCOTT's dob/dod please? I am researching my SCOTT FT also and I was wondering if he fits onto my tree somewhere.

Glad I could help! I've very little information on the Pypers.  My gt.gt.gt.gt.grandmother was Christian Pyper.  She married John Scott on 20/12/1794.  They had 2 children John,& Elizabeth. Christian died 5/1/1804 aged 36 & is buried in Peathill Kirkyard (Old Pitsligo),Aberdeenshire.  She is the only Pyper there that I know of.  Do you think your Pypers are from Aberdeenshire? There are a few other families with that surname here.

Hi, I am new to this site so still trying to figure how work it. Please could you message me? Christian Pyper is my great (x5) grandmother, no medals for guessing who is my great (x5) grandfather is. I'm hoping we can work together on our Scott family research.
