I am trying to trace my father's line and would appreciate any info anyone can come up on the following two people. Jeanie Hay Mutch (born in marnoch) parents unknown possibly around 1920. She had my father Alexander Riddell Mutch and his brother Edward (died young age unknown) whilst living in Aberchirder (foggieloan) and the father is believed to be an Alexander Riddell. My father traced a half sister called Evelyn who has since died but i believe she may have lived in Ellon. there is also believed to be another half brother. My grandmother then left Aberchirder, leaving my father and brother with my granny chrissie who lived on main street I believe and who brought my father up as one of her own. I believe my grandfather also lived on main street but this is from word of mouth via my mother. jeanie then was traced to dingwell, the black Isle where it is believed she got married to (unknown) Fleming and had further children of which there were twins. she died in 1962 from cancer aged 42 hence the approximate birth date.She was buried in a churchyard in dingwall although I have no name of which one. my grandfather is believed to have died around 1993 although it could have been later and is buried in the marnoch churchyard. I believe my fathers brother Edward is also buried in the marnoch churchyard. he died from asthma at an early age. I really hope someone can help me out here. I've tried searching the LDS for both but haven't come up with anything. maybe they are too recent or something. Any help would be greatfully recieved.
