This is all I have on him: married 22-11-1834 "William Cormach, Limehillock & Ellen Geddes, Garrowood" - Grange OPR. he was born abt 1808 Rothiemay, Banffshire census: 1841 Limehillock Grange, with his wife 1851 Limehillock Grange, with his wife 1861 Bracobrae Grange, with his wife 1881 Bracobrae Grange, a widower his wife died: 3-2-1871 6.30am age 61, Bracobrae, parish of Grange: "Helen Cormach (married to William Cormach farmer). Cause: disease of stomach. Parents: James Geddes farmer (deceased) and Cecilia Geddes ms Bruce (deceased). Informant: W Cormach widower [signed] (present)." - 1871-156(Grange)-3. The couple appear to have had no children, none ever appearing in any census (1871 census not looked up). I have not looked up his own death, but clearly it'll be available from Scotlands People.
