Aberdeenshire families

[PaulB28]

Hi tireur d elite

Sorry for taking so long to come back to you.

I am very interested in your post as you seem to have all the same family names as i do.

As you said in your post, most of these families lived in aberdeenshire for generations especially the Meldrums, Dow's and Davidsons.  The Bain family have actually traced back to Caithness were my GGG Grandfather George Bain was born and they came to Aberdeen in the late1830's early 1840's.

The Robello's are originally from Italy, my GG Grandfather Paulo (Paul) Robello arrived in the UK in the early 1840's, he finally settled in Aberdeen in the early 1850's were he married Mary Ann Mckay in 1853 and they went on to have 8 children, unfortunately only three of these children survived to be adults including my Great  Grandfather Paul Robello who married Helen Bain daughter of Alexander Bain and Agnes Johnston.   

I have alot more information on all of these families, so it would be great to hear form you.

There is one name that links several of these, and that is John Davidson who married Janet Meldrum (I know not exactly where or when) but their eldest child, Annie was born in Boddam as I understand.  She would have emerged into this world around 1880-3 and was the eldest of seven bearing such names as George, Alec, Richard, John, Margaret and Mary.
                                                                                  
Do you know who Annie Davidson married and when?
