I have just come across this 44+ pages of genealogy pertaining to Arthur families. I will have to look at it in depth when I have more time. I do have the death certificate of William Arthur who died 10th March 1856 at Midton, Cruden. Aged 85, he had had the flu for 7 weeks. The informant was his son John. Another son, William certified the burial in Ellon.

Thank you flft.  I've had the document for a while and it's a wonderful record.  John and I have  communicated in the past.  He hasn't replied to e-mails in the past couple of years when I've sent suggested edits, so there may be an e-mail issue. 

If James Arthur hadn't said his father was deceased when he married I'd have thought I had the correct family.  It's not making sense to me.

The William who certified the burial of William who died in 1856 married Barbara Cruikshank in the early 1850s was survived by her.  William died on 1 Dec 1879, now a crofter - parents William Arthur and Isabella Thomson.

I'm trying to confirm the tree of a DNA match who could be a gtgtgtgt-grandchild of William Arthur and Ann Massie.  I think we get quite a few of our matches from this family, as they had so many descendants.
