I have researched back to William Slessor & Margaret Rainey (daughter of John Rainey & Jean Burgess)who married on 6th May 1786 at Burntbrae,Old Deer.  Will gladly share any information I have on descendants of this couple.

Hi fist,

Can you tell me any info on william slessor and margaret rainey. I do not have enough info to be totally convinced about their entry on my tree, hence the ? in my last post.
I have absolute confirmation on Robert Slessor & Elizabeth Buchan married on 3rd December 1785 in Cruden.
