You can see a transcription online at http://freecen.rootsweb.com/cgi/search.pl and an image of the original at www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk The 1881 census lists Jas Fraser, married, age 32, gamekeeper, born Edinkillie as a visitor in the household of Walter Neilson, iron moulder, 29, born Glasgow and his wife isabella Ferguson, 28, born Callander at 115 Renfield street in Glasgow. So you are right in saying that he became a gamekeeper. You need to check the other censuses (1871, 1891, 1901) to see where he was living and working, who his wife was and whether they had any children.

Author: Forfarian Surnames: Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.britisles.scotland.mor.general/2380.2.1.1.1/mb.ashx Message Board Post: Isabella Ross, aged 4, is with the Ross family in 1841. You should be able to view full transcriptions of these censuses at http://freecen.rootsweb.com/cgi/search.pl If the Drainie Kirk Session minutes don't give any more information about Margaret Fraser, then I reckon your chances of finding her are not good. There is a slim chance that, if Isabella died in Scotland, her death certificate might say what her mother's married name was, if any. There are 12 apparently unattached Margaret Frasers of suitable age living in Moray and listed in the FreeCen transcription of the 1841 census: (1) age 20, servant at Turnatrippe and Delmullian, Dallas (2) age 20, servant at Cotts of Bergie, Rafford (3) age 20, servant at Sheriffston, St Andrews-Lhanbryd (4) age 25, no occupation, at Waterford, Elgin (5) age 25, servant in High Street, Forres (6) age 20, no occupation, in McBean's Close, Elgin (7) age 20, servant, in Duffas Close, Elgin (8) age 20, labourer, in Hopeman, Duffus (9) age 34, no occupation, in Cumming Street, Forres (10) age 21, servant, in Cumming Street, Forres (11) age 25, no occupation, in Lossiemouth, Drainie (12) age 20, no occupation, at Easter Lodge, Dyke Note that in the 1841 census ages were supposed to be rounded down to the nearest 5 years, so 'age 20' means 'aged 20 to 25' and so on. So all of these are potential candidates to be your Margaret Fraser. There is of course no guarantee that your one had not died or left the county between 1836 and 1841, so it need not necessarily be any of these 12 possibles. I note with interest that the one in Lossiemouth is with James Fraser, 65 and Isabella Fraser, 56 and three children, Alex Mason, 8, Margaret Fraser, 5 and Georgina Grant, 9 months. It might be interesting to check the Kirk Session minutes to see who their mothers were, and specifically, if any of them are also Margaret's children, whether the minutes say how many times Margaret had been brought to their attention for unmarried pregnancies. (A 'relapse' means the second time, and a 'trilapse' means a third time. I don't think I've seen a fourth time, but it would possibly be something like a 'quadrilapse'.) Hope this helps.

While I never met George Watt face-to-face, he quietly gave me immeasurable help with my searches. Like the late and lamented Stuart Mitchell, George had a deep and encyclopedic knowledge, not only of the families, but also of their context: the local history, society, geography and religion of Glenlivet, Inveravon, the Cabrach, Mortlach and Aberlour. He was a living link to the auld fowk an thair weys. He will be missed by many.

> Just looked-up on the Libindx the death of William Innes in > 1861 and it states that > it was shown in th MA paper for the > 25 Dec.1861 on Page 4/6. > > Does anyone have access to this article or should I go to the > Libindx site and > order it. I doubt if it will tell you anything more than you already know. It refers not to an article, but to a death announcement (i.e. a paid advertisement in the classified section of the Moray Advertiser) which will read along the lines of "Innes. At Craighead, Glenlivet, on 15th December 1861, William Innes, farmer, aged 83". If the advertisement had contained anything more, such as the name(s) of his wife/parents/children, then the additional information would also have been included in the LIBINDX entry. If it had been described as 'Obituary' or 'Article', it would have been worth getting, because it would be a short article about the life of the subject, possibly including some information about the family.
