Dear Ian,

Peter Duguid was the owner of the very old estate of Auchlunies in the
parish of Maryculter, Kincardineshire in the mid-19th century. I believe
he had bought it from the former laird's family. This may be the family
name you are looking for and, if so, I might have more information for you.
