Watt Family
« on: Thursday 11 March 10 09:11 GMT (UK) »
Hi,
This is a long shot but is anybody tracing this family. I have discovered that they were cousins of my father Albert French. Their were two brothers John and George and a sister Annie I think it was Montrose they came from. The only things I can definitely say is they were alive in 1963 because they were at my great aunt's funeral Alice Sutherland but by 1980 the two brothers were dead.
I have come across a George and John Watt in Sleepyhillock Graveyard in Montrose don't know if its the right people.
As I said just a long shot because I don't have much information.
