Hi,
I stumbled across your posts and the information is so interesting. My great grandfather James McEwen has parents noted as William McEwen and Helen Duncan. James was born in 1873 in Banff. At the time of his birth his parents were living at Auds Farm in Boyndie with the McEwen family and Helen Duncan is noted on the 1871 census as being a domestic servant at the farm. The census indicates that Helen would be born circa 1850.
Would you happen to have more information about the Helen Duncan noted in your post? I'm wondering if it's the same person as she seems to disappear after giving birth to James and I have no record of her life before or afterwards.
Thanks in advance, Liz
