    3. I would like to post the following family and see if anyone out there is searching for them: William Shand married Eliza Ellise November 2, 1799 in Auchterless - Children: Margaret Shand, b. 1799, Keith, Banffshire, d. June 18, 1886, Turriff, Aberdeenshire Alexander Shand, b. 1801 Christian Shand, b. 1804 Isabel Shand, b, 1807 William Shand, b. 1809 Robert Shand, b. 1812 Margaret Shand married James Robb September 16, 1821 in Auchterless In the 1881 census Dwelling: Gamekeepers Lodge, Rothiemay, Banff James ROBB, Head, Gamekeeper, Unmarried, age 56, M, born Auchterless Margaret ROBB, Mother, Housekeeper, Widow, age 81, F, born Auchterless The above Margaret Shand is the mother of my great-grandmother, Margaret Robb and the above James is my great-grandmother's brother. This family apparently moved from Banffshire to Auchterless, Aberdeenshire as their first child , Alexander,(Margaret Shand and James Robb) was born in Auchterless as were the rest of their children. I also have James Sandison born in Inverkeithny and died March 10, 1858 and married to Margaret Geddes ca 1809 in Forgue. My great grandfather, Peter Sandison was one of their children and born Inverkeithny, 1830. He had two children with Margaret Robb, daughter of James Robb and Margaret Shand. Peter's sister, Isabella, b. 1831, Inverkeithny married James Taylor June 2, 1855 in Ordiquhill, Banffshire. They are in the 1881 census in Fordyce. James Taylor was the son of George Taylor and Christina Sharp. Witnesses were George Taylor and Alexander Taylor. I have further information on this family which includes a daughter, Ann Taylor, born in Fordyce May 15, 1871 and married Henry Lawrence March 10, 1893 in Portsoy.
