Charles MacAdam was born on 12 July 1853 in Boharm, son of Charles MacAdam and Elizabeth Auld. On 31 March 1876 he married Elspet (not Elizabeth) Burgess, born Rothes in 1848/9, daughter of Charles Burgess and Jane Mantach. Their children included Jane (1876/7), Charles J (1878/9), Isabella (1881/2), William (1883/4), Arthur (1886/7) and Elizabeth (1888/9). I have the 1881 and 1891 census records, but not the 1901.
Before her marriage Elspet had a son, Walter Anderson Burgess, born 8 April 1870. He became a cooper, married Catherine Milne and emigrated to Canada with his family Walter (1899), Millicent (1901), Elsie (1903), and Easter Mary (1910). A fifth child, Robert, was born and died in 1908. I am in touch with descendants in Canada.
Elspet Burgess' father Charles Burgess was the son of Charles Burgess and Isabella Milne. I have quite a lot of information about their descendants, but so far I have not been able to link this Charles to my own family.
If you would like all the details, PM me.
