Great photo of Durisdeer Inn, haven't seen that before. My g. aunt had a big line from Grizel Maxwell's parents back. Ends up (with some skipped bits) to the Maxwell line but was never sure of it. How did you find out about the delay in the wedding (Gateslack)?

No, they married in edinburgh (st cuthberts) 1768. Can be found on scotlands people.  Would be interesting to find out more about your uncles side and wether we are connected! I have a very small family and my dad has no first cousins, he is keen to find any living relatives. The family moved to easter ross in the mid/late 1800's and have been on the same farm ever since.

Not sure I'm doing this right! Very new to the whole thing. Was doing a google search and stumbled across these messages and they grabbed my attention. Lots of chat about William Rae and Grizel Maxwell (Durisdeer), know this lot quite well as they are my gggg grandparents! Any info on William would be much appreciated as I'm stuck on their marriage in 1768. As a by the by, family lore says that he came from mid lothian or thereabouts. Also I'm from up north too!
