Illegitimate son of father John Reid and mother Sally Rhind b 7/1/1837 baptised in Darbreigh, Forfarshire, Scotland.
John married Isabella Custard and had at least two children: Jane (30/7/1838) and Eliza ( 11/12/1839). I have tree almost complete from this point on - Hector went to NZ and onto Australia

Is this the family you refer to - in Banffshire by 1841

Are you wanting to go further back?

I've not added the baptisms of Jane & Eliza as you already have those details

Possible parents for John Reid baptised Rathven where 1851 census indicates he was born. If 1806 for year of birth is correct then parents could be James Reid and Jean Copland.

Welcome to the Community boards Katrina.


(I'll let Katrina know how to find her replies) :-)

ScotlandsPeople has no birth for a Sally or Sarah Rhind (or variant spelling) anywhere in Scotland 1800-1825

Possibly Sally's later marriage - or at least, two dates on which banns were read:

23/10/1845 RHIND SALLY ALEXR. LESLIE/ F RATHVEN /BANFF 164/00 0030 0313

17/11/1845 RHIND SALLY ALEXANDER LESLIE/ F KEITH /BANFF 159/00 0050 0557

From FS - I don't see this on Ancestry. This is the same Sarah as that in 1841 posted by Greyghost:


Sarah Rhind
Scotland Census, 1851
Name Sarah Rhind
Event Type Census
Event Date 1851
Gender Female
Age 41
Birthplace Banffshire
Registration District Keith
County Banffshire
Birth Year (Estimated) 1810

This might be the same record on Ancestry, with surname mistranscribed.

But if so, she must be a different woman from the one who married Alexander Leslie:

Sarah Rheude
in the 1851 Scotland Census

Name: Sarah Rheude
Age: 41

Ancestry's version of the 1841 already posted by Greyghost:

The 1851 as posted by ArgyllGran - Sally can be a form of Sarah - but she is said to be widowed!!

And Margaret Rhind from that 1841 census (niece Elizabeth Reid still with her)

Did John Reid father another child of Sally's or is the Reid surname a coincidence. She is described as niece ????

Alexander Leslie's death on SP - so the widowed Sarah in 1851 is probably the right person, using her maiden name.

05/10/1847 LESLIE ALEXANDER ----- M KEITH /BANFF 159/00 0050 0687
