Hi Sharon, Can you tell me how you gain access to 1851 census data for Kincardineshire please. Jim Murray

Hi folks While we are on the subject of Coutts, I would like to add my interests. STRACHAN: Alexander Emslie (father William) married Helen Ferries 31 July 1852. Four children, James, Margaret, Alexander and Francis. I am also interested in anyone who connects with the Glass line at Bowbutts and any Gordons there! BIRSE: Auchabrack .... if your family lived at Auchabrack or indeed any of the Forest of Birse I would love to hear from you. I have quite a number of records for this area and am always interested in help to link any of these families together! My family names include: McCondach Glass in Auchabrack - they are all my ancestors! Coutts at Murly / Wester Clune / Haughend but am interested to hear from anyone who have Coutts in Birse. Gordon - especially any and all Gordons! Associated families with the above include - Harper, Milne, Kelman, Smith, Mortimer.
