Mitchells of Banchory Ternan.....
Hi All! I haven't posted for a few months since I thanked you for finding one of my elusive Crathie Mitchell ancestors in the 1881 census. Sadly the elusive Charles Mitchell disappeared again and is nowhere to be found since! In the meantime I have traced the family of my g.g.g. grandfather William'...

I've had a similar problem but I have noticed that if I'm on-line using Internet Explorer it's okay but then I have to contend with other annoying popups. If I use Mozilla Firefox I have no annoying popups but no images from SP either! Getting a new machine tomorrow and would love to be able to avoi...

Drew and Mary! Between you two I could be up all night tonight! Could this really be my Charles Mitchell after all this time. If that's the 1881 census Drew, the age is out by 2 or 3 years.

Mary E I'm fascinated! First of all I have details of William and Margaret. He is from Crathie and I found his parents Peter Mitchell and Mary Bowman and his siblinngs Mary, Charles, Peter, Donald, Stuart and Farquharson. Margaret is trickier - her death certificate declares her to be the daughter o...

Thanks Drew, Yes I am aware of Marian. I didn't include her in the message for that reason and because I found her marriage to Thomas Wilson and the birth of 6 children. I also found the marriages of two of these, Jane and Margaret to William Gauld and William Allanach respectively, both of Glenbuch...

Hi, I have just joined your grouop although I have been using scotlandspeople for some time. I am also a member of Aberdeen NESFHS and Stonehaven Genealogy. Can anyone help me trace two ancestors? My g.g.grandfather Peter Mitchell came to Ireland around 1870. His sister Helen b. 25/10/1846 Strathdon...
