The two brothers Robert and Alexander Innes arrives to Gothenburg, Sweden, some time before 1769, from Banffshire. They´ve already got a half brother John Tarras in Gothenburg on their mothers side, earlier married to a merchant Tarras who died early, whereafter the widow married a Robert Innes. John Tarras was probably born in Banff 1732, and arrived to Gothenburg around 1758. Some years later the two brothers Robert and Alexander Innes arrived to Sweden. Some source claims that Robert was born 1745, my own research indicates that Alexander was born 1763. Robert is one of 20 men, many Scots, who founded the Royal Bachelors Club in Gothenburg. Robert has signed the charter in november 1769. This indicates that their arrival in Sweden should be approx. 1764-1768. During these years, Sweden was ruled by Gustaf III, who actually banned this kind of private clubs by the law. However, the 20 men convinced the King and they were allowed to found it. Still today, this Royal Bachelors Club has the swedish King as a superior member. Is there anyone in Moray or Banffshire, familiar with the clan of Innes, who can help me find the link between Scotland and Sweden? Who were the parents of Robert and Alexander Innes? If my clues are correct his first name should be Robert. Unfortunately, I havent been able to find a possible Robert Innes in Banffshire. Regards, Kaj Andersson Gothenburg, Sweden
