    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/ReC.2ACI/2530.1 Message Board Post: John Booth born about 1768 in the Garioch district of Aberdeenshire married on Feb 15 1794 at Rayne one Helen Paterson born about 1772 in the Garioch. They had a son John Booth born in the Garioch Aug 7 1797. I believe this John Booth may have married Elizabeth Watt although I can find neither their marriage or the birth date of Elizabeth. This couple had a son John Booth born at Forgue Aug 8 1817. Seems all to fit. I tried to E-mail you directly but it failed to go through. Bill ---ex of the Garioch

    3. Hello Bill, and my apologies for a belated response to your direct email to me. My OE has been down for a few days, but now working as it should. Your information on the Booths seems to fit in perfectly with my picture, and I too will now seek to fill in the gaps. I'll keep you informed if I turn up anything. What is your Booth interest? The Booth family tree belongs to my wife whose mother was a Booth. Her father was Alexander Garden whose ancestors came form Rathven and the Portessie area. The Gardens were farmers as I think were the Booths. If you are interested in the Garden line, please let me know. They all, what's left of them, seem to be in Fife. I, and my wife Agnes live in Kent. We are well into our eighties but fit. Good to hear from you. Regards, Alistair
