my husband's great-grandmother was Jean/Jane Duncan who married George Pirie
in Keith and Fordyce in Dec 1847.. she had one son she named Alexander b
1848, (my husband's grandfather) and she died May 1850.. at Allachardoch,
Keith.. her age at death puts her birth at about 1814-5.. and from records at
Aberdeen Family History center.. I found her parents were Alexander Duncan
and Janet Wilson of Bellyhack, Botriphnie.. I can find no other IGI birth
that comes close.. so I assume that this is correct.. and perhaps she was
working in Fordyce when she married.. as she was 32 yrs old..

I also have marraige of William to Jane Grant in 1847.. and Thomas to
Magdelaine Shearor in 1835..

from IGI there were 10 children born to Alexander and Janet Duncan.. I
have no idea about the other 7.. George, Mary, Katherine, Margaret, Alexander,
Phinella, and Isobel

would be happy to hear about any other Duncan connections to this family..
