Banffshire / Re: Help with John Badenoch and family
« on: Sunday 25 January 15 21:55 GMT (UK) »Hi! I'm researching my family and have come up against a wall with
John Badeonch born about 1799. He married Isobel/Isabel Muir and their children were Ebenezer, Isobel, James, John, Alexander and Ann and they were all born around Buckie and surrounds.
Some of their children came to South Australia and I have records of their deaths there around Carey Gully. I can't any other information about the parents though whether they came to Australia or not.
Any help would be very much appreciated!!

Hi Suzanne, My name is Kym Badenoch and I too am searching for details about the mysterious John Badenoch and Isobel Muir. From my research I believe that the couple married in 1797. Their son Alexander Badenoch (1799-1883) was born in Cullen and he then went on to marry Agness Collie (1797-1861) in Alves, Scotland in 1820. They birthed a son Alexander Badenoch II (1826-1870) and the family of three traveled to South Australia in 1849 aboard the barque ship Ramillies which departed Southampton UK. The family then settled in Carey Gully in the Adelaide Hills. Alexander (II) married Elizabeth Pascoe in 1855. Agness Collie died in 1861 and Alexander (I) remarried in 1864 to Elizabeth McVittie. Alexander (II) then died in 1870 at the age of 44 but was survived by 6 or 7 children. I wish I could find out more info about John and Isobel. Did you or anyone else out there manage to come up with anything?
