Duncan Rose.
« on: Monday 29 January 18 22:28 GMT (UK) »
I have Duncan Rose in my family b1846 Banffshire. He was married to Jane McMillan 20 Nov1872 in Govan.
In 1881 they lived in Govan, he was a Police Constable.
I can't find his parents or anything about Jane McMillan.
Any help would be appreciated.

Hi nenepops

This info should be on the 1872 marriage cert that you mention...

I haven't got the marriage certificate. I found the marriage details online.

The original image with full details on their parents' names is available to view on www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk

Duncan gave his place of birth as Tomintoul in Banff. This is in the parish of Kirkmichael. There is this 1851 census entry that might fit for him:

Janet Cumming 34 general servant unmarried b. Tomintoul Kirkmichael, Banffshire
Betsy Ross 8 daughter b Kirkmichael, Banffshire
Duncan Ross 6 son b. Kirkmichael, Banffshire

Address: Main Street  Krkmichael Tomintoul-Banffshire

Rose and Ross can be interchangeable.

Thank you MonicaL.
So Janet could possibly be their mum? Strange in those days being not married..

Betsey and Duncan Ross were in all probabilty illegitimate. There are transcripts of their baptisms on Freereg.

Betsey Ross born 10 Oct 1841, baptism 5 Dec 1841 Abode Tomintoul Father Donald Ross Mother Janet Cumming Natural child (this means Betsey was illegitimate).

Duncan Ross baptism 17 Oct 1844 Abode Tomintoul Father Donald Ross Mother Janet Cumming


The following is from a digest of the kirk session records for Kirkmichael. This is as transcribed

"Ron Donald 1841 Servant in Ruthven father of child by Janet Cumming".

Ron may be an incorrect transcription of Ross - there is a village called Ruthven in the parish of Cairnie, Aberdeenshire as well as a parish called Rathven in Banffshire.


The only way to see if these are your Duncan's parents is, as Monica has suggested, to download his marriage cert.from Scotland's People.

Thank you Millmoor. I will look into downloading the certificate.
So would you suggest that Ross would be Rose?

Adding this as it may be relevant once the marriage details are confirmed -
1841 Census(FreeCEN)
Ruthven , Kirkmichael , Banffshire
Donald Ross 20 agricultural labourer born Banffshire

Thanks ev.
So do you think I need to look at Ross now instead of Rose? It's so confusing!!
