SUMMERS Family in Fraserburgh
« on: Friday 08 June 07 14:42 BST (UK) »
I'm trying to locate family of a Wilson SUMMERS who lived in Fraserburgh possibly up to the late 1920's.

Help greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

James.

Hi James

Scotland's People shows 1 possible death that might fit.

1937 SUMMERS WILSON     M 82 FRASERBURGH /ABERDEEN 196/00 0048

As don't know any more details, think worth you checking this one on Scotland's People to see if parents names match your records.

Ann,

Thanks.  The one I'm interested in is in the photo I posted under the heading - Who are these people?
 http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php/topic,237456.0.html

I just don't know when the photo was taken other than pre '28 probably because the lady in front on the grass moved to Canada then.

Doing my sums, I suppose 'your' man might fit.

Thanks.

James.

Sorry can't help with the photo fraid but if you know his parents details then you can certainly confirm it with that death cert one way or other. There are other Wilson's there but the dates just didn't fit.

Hope this one is your man!

here is what i have so far my friend from the igi's

your wilson summers was born 7/8/1854 and christened on the 9/9/1854 at rathen, aberdeen.


would be a good idea to ask for the 1861 census for your wilson.

was your wilson's father called wilson?

if so wilson was born 1832

1841 census-cairnbulg, rathen

john-age 40-fisher
elizabeth-40
william-19
andrew-15
mary-10
wilson-8
catherine-5
elizabeth-4

this was ttranscribed as simmers on freecen

more research with the igi's say that your wilson was the son of wilson and elizabeth third.

elizabeth third was the daughter of william and martha buchan, born 1832 rathen.

she married wilson on the 21/10/1852, rathen.

children:

william...born 8/9/1852 rathen
wilson...born 7/8/1854 rathen
john...born 22/5/1856 fraserburgh
rachel...born 3/12/1858 fraserburgh
andrew...born 13/12/1862 fraserburgh
william third...14/11/1863 fraserburgh
andrew...13/4/1866 fraserburgh
martha third...7/6/1868 fraserburgh
john trail...3/7/1870 fraserburgh
joseph third...26/9/1873

i am still searching at the moment my friend, hopefully some kind soul will find this family on the censuses for you.

Hi

1861 census shows the following :

Elizabeth Summers Head Married aged 28 Seaman's Wife
William aged 8
Wilson aged 6
Rachel aged 3
John aged 1

Looks like dad was away at sea when census was done!
