Hi George ´My wife is from the Petrie line in Kinnethmont throug Anne Robertson. I have William Petrie as being born in 1768 at the Mains of Craighall, Kinnethmont. I would have to check my source for this information. I have no record of his death except that it was between before 1851. His second widow Anne Robertson died at Roadside of Law on 8 December 1862. The last time we visited Scotland before moving to Spain we had a look at the farm steadings worked by the various Petriefamilies including Roadside of Law before visiting Leith Hall. There is a large group photograph in Leith Hall showing the Laird and all the tenants etc of the estate. This was taken in the 1890s and there were still Petrie´s there. As far as the father of William Petrie is concerned all I have is that his father was William Petry or Petrie. Again I would have to check my source. No mention of the mother Regards George Torre de la Horadada España ======================================== Message Received: Mar 21 2006, 10:53 PM From: "George N Henderson" <henderson57@paradise.net.nz> To: PETRIE-SCOTLAND-L@rootsweb.com Cc: Subject: [Petrie-Scotland] Kinnethmont Petries Hi All, Nice to see all the messages on the list, here is a question for those of you researching the Kinnethmont Petries. who were the parents of William Petrie born Premnay and who married (1) Ann Isaac on the 31 May 1788 at Premnay and (2) Ann Robertson on the 24 Dec 1797 at Rhynie, I have him born / baptised on the 18 Feb 1768 at Premnay, is this correct?, I do know that in the Leith Hall papers at National Archives Edinburgh, he signed a paper on the 28th Oct 1847, where he states he was then aged 79 and born at Burnend of Premnay where he resided for 19 years and then came to Law in the Parish of Kinnethmont. Possibly when he married Ann Isaac Can anyone help with this, I would be most grateful.
