Hi Goldie Just to add to Victoria & Ray, John DUTHIE married Isabella WALKER in Cruden in 1893 and SP has a death for an Isabella DUTHIE (other surnames WALKER) in Cruden in 1900. The 1891 census shows that George and Barbara WALKER had a daughter Isabella then aged 20. Downloading the certificates from SP would confirm this and downloading the 1901 census image would confirm that John was a widower. Victoria, the LDS site only has Scottish births to 1875, Jemima was likely born 1876.

Hi Goldie, I see your not seeing something. John Duthie and Elizabeth Walker are not married. The first daughter of John Duthie:Barbara A dau age 7 abt 1894 Cruden Abd Scholar. Elizabeth Walker was 18 in the 1901 census which would have made her 11 years old to have had Barbara Duthie;so now we know Elizabeth Walker is out. I cannot find Jemima listed on the LDS site as daughter for George Walker and Barbara. Unless Jemima is spelt different and I am not going to go into it at this point. Don't mean to be rude Goldie but I am stuffed from too much turkey.Ha!Ha!. Ray has a good point. Now,about some of the womens maiden names. I feel that they are proud of who they are and want to be know by their given birth names. As far as they are concerned they are listed as married or widowed and that takes care of any concerns. The other thing could have been the census takers asked what her maiden name was to be correct. I have found that this continued past 1901 and that is OK!! I only wished it occured here in the US because we could trace relatives better. I hope everyone had a Great Turkey Day!!! opps!!Thanksgiving.

To: aberdeen@rootsweb.com Date: Friday, November 27, 2009, 5:14 AM Hi Goldie That's better. [see below] Why do you assume that Jemima WALKER married John DUTHIE? Scotland's People shows one marriage of John DUTHIE to a female WALKER in Cruden in the 1893 but it is NOT Jemima nor [unsurprisingly] is it the much younger Elizabeth. So it would presumably be another WALKER sister. My credits have expired on ScP otherwise I would have looked at the hit list but I'll leave that to you. There is one death of a female DUTHIE a.k.a WALKER in 1900 in Cruden which is almost certainly John's wife and the missing sister of J & E, and mother of the girls, Barbara, Christine and Jane. Q.E.D. You didn't notify Jemima's or Elizabeth's or John's marital statuses. I'd guess John was "W" and the women were "U". Panic not! -- Best wishes Ray ********************************************************** >

The info on this family I got off different census @ Scotlands People, but I have a friend who has a disc with Scottish census on it and she has been pulling some of them for me. Unfortunately she neglected to add W behing John Duthie. But now thanks to Listers, the problem is solved, and another member of the family laid to rest. Thanks Andy and others.........
