Hello Carol, did you know that your Helen McKerron died December 29, 1909 in Rothes ? If you would like any further information on this family please let me know. Regards ray

Thanks Ray, Already had her death at 81. But not that of her hubby Alexander b1829. Infact, Helen links into my tree on two points. 1, through her marriage to Alexander Riach and 2. through her grandmother Elspeth. Both going back to Peter 1660' ish I already have her parents Peter Mckerron c1797-1866 and mother Helen Davidson 1792-1881 (those dates I have to check. Peter was a tennementer in Rothes and his parents are not known to me. But he was living in Green Street at the time of his marriage and was a mason journeyman. However, I do know the names of Helen's parents James Davidson dates unknown and Elspeth Riach 1799 - 1863. Elspeth being the child of Adam Riach and Ann Wilson - this Riach lines then goes back to the middle of the 1600's, with offshoots coming off like bind weed. I was sent a family tree years ago, when we still had to put pen to paper, buy a stamp and then wait, and wait for a reply. The hours I looked at this tree and in my sould knew this info fitted in with my tree. I knew that somewhere along the line it was one of the siblings of one of my grandfathers past, that this tree gave all the the other relations. I tried to contact the author of the tree who had put his name and address on - but think he must have died. I must have had the tree over 10 years until, what had been staring me in the face 'clicked'. It was this tree that also told me one of Helen and Alexanders children died in ZA. I was kindly sent info re his marriage by someone on the ZA mailing list. Any other info that you have would be appreciated.
