Hi Paul,
I have pasted this reply you made in a previous post. Have you managed to find out what happened to John and Janet?
"Unfortunately I could'nt find deaths for John Riddel and Janet Cowie unfortunately I have not been able to find them after the 1881 census.
I am going up to Aberdeen Family History Society Research Centre hopefully in October so I going to have another look there."

John.

Hi Paul,
John and Janet farmed at Bograxie, near Inverurie, from about 1852 till 1881 when they seemed to disappear. I haven't investigated emmigration possibilities yet. Their son James, born Insch 1849, was also farming at Bograxie in 1881. He died in 1885, found drowned in the well of a neighbouring farm; his widow and family were at Newhills near Aberdeen in 1891. Keep looking and maybe we can finish the jigsaw one day.
John.

Hello Paul,
I am researching people who lived at Bograxie near Inverurie.
Ann Riddel(husband John Mortimer) had a brother John who lived at Bograxie 1861 - 1881, married to Janet Cowie. I haven't managed to find death certificates for John or Janet, do you have any info on them or their children?
John.

Hi Paul,
I am interested in the children of Charles Riddle and Mary Morrison from Knockenbaird, Insch and  the children of John Riddel and Janet Cowie, also from Insch.
John.
