    3. Dear listers: I am looking for information or leads on this family: (1) 1 WILLIAM MITCHELL Birth Date: 4 Apr 1854 Birth Place: AuldTown Ord, Banff, Banffshire, Scotland Occ: Sugar Planter (Wedding Cert, 1881) Farmer (Wife's death Cert, 1889) Father: WILLIAM MITCHELL, Mother: JESSIE STEVENSON aka JANET, (1830-<1901) Spouse: GEORGINA JANE GORDON Birth Date: abt1856 Death Date: 10 Aug 1890, age: 34 Death Place: Trocheslie, Fordyce, Banffshire, Scotland Father: GEORGE GORDON, (->1890) Mother: JANE YOUNG,(->1890) Marr Date: 21 Nov 1881 Marr Place: Ord, Banffshire, Scotland Children: GEORGE G. H., (~1882-) MARGE FLO, (~1885-) WILBERT MONTROSE, (1889-) (2) 1.1 GEORGE G. H. MITCHELL, Birth Date: abt 1882 (from 1891 census) Birth Place: St Vincent, West Indies Reside Date: 1891, age: 9 Reside Place: Trochesly, Fordyce, Banffshire, Scotland – is living with his grandmother Jessie Stevenson. Occ: Scholar (1891) (2) 1.2 MARGE FLO MITCHELL Birth Date: abt 1885 (from 1891 census) Birth Place: Fordyce, Banffshire, Scotland Reside Date: 1891, age: 6 Reside Place: Trochesly, Fordyce, Banffshire, Scotland – is living with her grandmother Jessie Stevenson. (2) 1.3 WILBERT MONTROSE MITCHELL, Birth Date: 17 Mar 1889 Birth Place: Drochedlie, Fordyce, Banffshire, Scotland Reside Date: 1901, age: 11 Reside Place: AuldTown Ord, Ord, Banff, Banffshire,Scotland – is living with his grandmother Jessie Stevenson. Occ: Scholar (1901) Neither WILLIAM MITCHELL, his wife to be, GEORGINA GORDON, her witness MAGGIE GORDON or her parents show up in the 1881 Census. WILLIAM disappears after GEORGINA dies leaving his chidlren with his mother. I wonder if WILLIAM returned to the West Indies. The two older children also seem to disappear by the time of the 1901 Census. Any clues as to who this family is or where they lived would be a great help, __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
