Milne's still living in Ellon?
« on: Tuesday 26 April 05 03:07 BST (UK) »
I understand that I have living relatives still at the old homesteads, does anyone know of any Milne's in Skillafilly?  The directions are:  Take the A 92 north of Aberdeen (closest highway to the coast). At Ellon take A 949 north, about six miles on this road, on the right you will see Blindburn where the family moved to in 1872. Back track about one mile and take a small road west toward Arnage, cross the railroad bridge at Arnage and keep going joining another road north at Drumwhindie. When you come to the fork, take either way and then come to the crossroads, take the road toward the road you didn't take at the fork and Skillafilly where the Milnes lived.

The people who had Skilmafilly in the 1950's and 60's were called Connon. My cousin, who lived at Blindburn, married one of the sons, and they still farm locally. I'll see if she knows any Milnes.
