They farmed on the farms of Guilyknowes,Follisters, Auchinderran all around Keith. I found Balandy on the map south of Dufftown which is a little further away than I thought. However I have heard that McConachies in Banffshire are all related. I can give my family tree if you are interested. Isobel Pirie
