Both parents and  some of their children are recorded on the Libindx database (http://libindx.moray.gov.uk) including their daughter Margaret (not Mary Jane) who married Joseph Blair.

Thank you for the information and the web site, I have had a brief look at the site, hopefully I will find lots of relatives there.

I have some information on Elizabeth McHattie who married Hugh McLean Wilson, in Keith Banffshire, 19 Oct. 1845.

They also lived in Old Machar Aberdeen according to 1881 census.

Banffshire / Re: Will do lookups various books

Hi Rena
I have looked at all my little booklets etc.  and the only close name is in the Keithhall Kirkyard cemetery listing that is of an Agnes SHIVAS Gibb d. Woodside of Kinmuck 28 Feb.1918 age 22 also Barbara H.S. Gibb d. Belwade Dess 6 June 1931 aged 33. 

There is nothing in the 1851 census - however, I know there is a family (related to me actually) of Shiach which is gaelic for Shaw.   Could your name be gaelic?

Sorry I can't help, have you done a search on the Hugh Wallis, batch number site? just google Hugh Wallis, I have had lots of luck on the Banffshire listings there.

Good luck
Dorothy

Hi Wendy
I have a surname index for the 1851 census for Banffshire but no Lovies in it tried Luvie etc no luck

In the Keithhall & Kinkell kirkyard booklet, there is a listing in the Keithhall portion "Erected by Betty Davidson in memory of her husband ROBERT LAWIE d. Kinmuck 5 Apr. 1892 aged 69, said Betty Davidson d. South Lodge, Keith-hall 15 Apr. 1913 aged 82".  I always check similar names spelling being what is was.

General Reg. of Sasines counties of Banff, Elgin Forres, Nairn & Kincardine 1701-1720 - The closest was Logie, George son of Andrew L. of Loanhead 1.10.1706 (SRO RS16 90.81)

Birth Briefs of Aberdeen 1637-1705 nothing close at all.

Who Comes Here 1750=1985 (Masonic history at Keith) the only similar name was Alex Logie, fochabers a member in 1796.

Sorry I couldn't find your David, good luck with your research.

Banffshire / Will do lookups various books

I have several booklets and will do some lookups, books are:

General Register of Sasines, Banff, Elgin, Forres, Nairn & Kincardine 1701-1720 (Sasines are records of transfer of lands some within family members)

Birth Briefs of Aberdeen, this is a fascinating record of declarations sworn under oath primarily of people born outside of Scotland, showing their parents names including maiden names.
