Hi Carol, I have Francis GRANT's death certificate and according to it he was the son of Alexander GRANT and Isabel DASON/DEASON/DESSON. According to the IGI and 1851 Census he was born in Auchindoir not Gartly. Please let me know if you would like a copy of the cert.

I hope nobody here has suffered from the flash flooding of these areas last night. Janet

Hi Jen, Thanks so much for the info, and yes, I would like a copy. I have been totally confused by this as Francis stated in all the census records that he was born at Gartly, but I could not find a baptism for him there. Auchindoir makes complete sense, as I know the family moved from there to Gartly and later on to Kennethmont. I will now be able to order up the film for Auchindoir, and will probably find what I am looking for there. What is your connection to this family? I am interested in that you appear to live in Australia (as we do) and I am doing this research for my son-in-law who also now lives here. I have all the census records, and if you would like to have copies of them, let me know.
