Thanks to the kindness of George N Henderson I have two sisters for my grandmother - they are Rosanna Petrie (named for her paternal grandmother) born ca 1869 Arbuthnot, Kincardine, and Margaret M. born ca 1877 Edinburgh. My great-grandfather - John Petrie - was either born or christened January 5, 1840 - Arbuthnot, Kincardine - parents William Petrie and Rosanna Tavendel Petrie. I never knew my grandmother had sisters - it always seemed (with her dying young) that she was the only one. Did her sisters go with her to Manchester? Beatrice Buchan Petrie it seems was either born or christened 12 December 1830 at Chapel of Garioch (Aberdeen), to John Buchan and Margaret Mathieson Buchan. -- Eloise Jackson __________________________________________________________________ Get your own FREE, personal Netscape Webmail account today at http://webmail.netscape.com/
