Hello, Thank you for replying so quickly and I do apologize for ending my message to you as the internet here where I live in Australia decided to cut out and had to be reset.  My area of focus is on George Hall b. abt. 1720 to Elisabeth Reid.  I came across the MI website and found an Index to MI Booklets published by ANESFHS - George Hall d.1810 booklet: Kirkyard of Insch (AA092) burial ground: Insch  - stone: 38 George Hall   July 1810; Alexr. Hall   Feb. 1825; Walter Hall   n.d..  I am trying to find more information on George and Elisabeth as, I am assuming, George lived and worked in the Knockenbaird area and I was given the information that George had died at Knockenbaird.  I am naturally limited in my searching but, is there somewhere I am able to search for the evidence that they lived and worked in this area?  The MI information looks promising but I am still not sure.
Do you have any suggestions? 
Thank you for your reply with information and I will keep these on file, just in case.

Knockenbaird and married to Elisabeth Reid 25 June 1747 Insch, Aberdeenshire, Scotland.  They had 9 children: George b.1747;Elspeth b 1750; Janet b 1752; Margaret b.1753; William b. 1756; Mary b.1760; Jean b.1760; Agnes b.1762; Walker (Walter) b.1765.  The George from this family (b.1747) m. Jean Ledinghame 20 March 1790 Insch, Aberdeen, Scotland.  They had 4 children: Alexander b.1791; George 1793; Walker b.1796; Isabell b.1800.  The George from this family (b.1793) m Anne (Lidingham) Ledingham Abt. 1811 Scotland.  They had 6 children: Margaret b.1812 m John Davidson b 1804 Premnay, Aberdeen, Scotland m 9 June 1838 Chapel Of Garioch, Aberdeen, Scotland.  They had 2 children: John and William
