Moray (Elginshire) / Re: John Duncan DAVIDSON --- Forres

Jock (John Duncan) Davidson's sister Catherine was my great grandmother.  I have put all the basic genealogical information I know about Jock's siblings and his parents into Libindx. I believe his sister Mary Jane married a Mr Large and moved to Canada but I have no more details. I can add details to the basics in Libindx such as transcriptions of obituaries etc.

The police station was then in the Tolbooth in the centre of Forres.  The rooms are now used for the storage of local government archives.  An enclosed passage between the High Street and Tolbooth Street under the courthouse is still known as th "Bobby's bow".

The Local Heritage Centre in Elgin has a continuing indexing programme (Libindx) of deaths, obituaries and pre-1930 marriages in the local newspapers including the Press & Journal.  However there are no plans to digitise any of the newspapers in the forseeable future.

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.
