The other catherine posting is not me,i will have to change my post name
Cathie

I think that this is a strong possibility when we have the Dinnes surname in there
My own recent family still give surnames as middle names,it's been quite usefull for me when trying to trace people.

Thanks so much Cassandra,
I wonder where he went,lol perhaps asleep in a haystack with the baby Margaret!
Seems like the whole family was living on this farm together,so that's good news.

CASSANDRA

Hi Cassandra
,this does look like the mother and some of the children,especially given that the head householder is a Dinnas which is the same as the middle name of the son George.
so thanks for that.I wonder where the father was,perhaps Agnes was a widow
So she was born in Udny!
Thank you again

CASSANDRA

Hi i have a family on my grandmothers side that i only recently found out about,and would like to know more about them.
so if any one has access to Scottish census i would really appreciate any info i can get.
however the surname is always spelled a different way.This is what i know
the family are John Macgegor father and Agnes Taylor mother
Children
Thomas Macgregor Feb 1845 Fyvie
Isabel Macgregor Dec 1847 Fyvie
George Dinnas Macgregor Nov 1849 Fyvie
Margaret Macgregor Nov 1852 Fyvie

I don't know any thing about the parents
Margaret was my ancestor she married Robert Thomson and died of TB in 1892 at 14 Chapel Lane Aberdeen
Margaret is my great great grandmother so it would be nice to know where her parents came from and what they did for a living.
Many thanks
Cathie
