I am once again asking if anyone has any information on James JAFFRAY. His information is as follows. I have been unable to break through this brick wall for years, and it would be great if this year is the one to knock it down. I do have his descendants, but it is the ancestors that are the problem. If you have any suggestions of WHERE I should be looking that I haven't, please let me know. If anyone is willing to do a look up I would appreciate that also. Thanks Sharon Lamb Aldergrove, B.C. Canada 1. JAMES **1 JAFFRAY was born Abt. 1831 in Strichen, Aberdeenshire, Scotland, and died Bef. 1938 in Strichen, Aberdeenshire, Scotland.

There are 2 of them b Strichen,,1- 10 Nov 1838, Father is James mother is Bathia Pirie, 2 - 23 Jan 1840 F is William and mother is Mary Ironsides.......My suggestion to you would be to get his death cert or registration from Scotland's People, and follow the census up thru the 1841, 1851 etc....Have you tried Freecen@roots.com Goldie ----- Original Message ----- From: "Robin LAMB" <Robin_Lamb@telus.net> To: <aberdeen@rootsweb.com> Sent: Thursday, November 26, 2009 11:31 PM Subject: [ABERDEEN] James JAFFRAY of Strichen > > > I am once again asking if anyone has any information on James JAFFRAY.
