Perthshire / Re: 1841 census- Abernethy

Cheers Kat,


Sorry I have taken so long to reply - my computer has been eaten by virus bugs but is now clean as new.

Many thanks for all your information about David.  He was not on the microfiche in the Perth library when I looked many years ago, so I did not know about him. 

I am much impressed by all your knowledge and doubt whether I shall be able to add anything to what you already know. 

I too am descended from Hugh's son Tom so shall send you a personal message of identification.

You could be my long lost fairy godmother!!!  That would be good.

Cheers - Ergy

I just joined the chatroom and see you were looking for your 5x GP Hugh Robertson who is also my 3x GP.

I can help in your query (2/3/05) re younger Mary.  The gravestone of Hugh Robertson and Mary Malcolm in the Abernethy churchyard shows:-

"also their daughter Mary who died 29/3/1900 aged 83 years."

I did not find her birth in the OPR's nor that of David.  I would be interested to know how you learned of him.

According to some notes I have of the Malcolm family Hugh's wife Mary was born at Abernethy on 4th February 1775 so was no chicken when Mary Junior was born in or around 1817.

Hope this helps

Ergo
