Alviegal, could I ask where you got the records from that you posted at 2208 and 2212 please - I don't recognise the format (though I probably should knowing me!). Might be a good source for my Scottish research. Thanks

ArgyllGran

ArgyllGran Report 28 Nov 2015 22:14

The McCunach's in Ancestry's 1841 must be maternal relatives, then.

???

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

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

1851 England, Wales & Scotland Census Transcription
Mid Street, Keith, Banffshire, Scotland

First name(s) Last name Relationship Marital status Gender Age Birth year Occupation Birth place
William Gillies Head Unmarried Male 44 1807 Mason Keith, Banffshire, Scotland
George Gillies Brother Unmarried Male 39 1812 Farm Labourer Keith, Banffshire, Scotland
David Gillies Brother Unmarried Male 39 1812 Carpenter Keith, Banffshire, Scotland
Margaret Gillies Mother Widow Female 84 1767 Mason's Mother Keith, Banffshire, Scotland
Sarah Rhind Servant Widow Female 41 1810 Mason's Servant Portsoy, Banffshire, Scotland
________________________________________

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

1851 England, Wales & Scotland Census Transcription
Buinach, Rathven, Enzie, Banffshire, Scotland

First name(s) Last name Relationship Marital status Gender Age Birth year Occupation Birth place
Margaret Rhind Head Unmarried Female 47 1804 Spinner Rathven, Banffshire, Scotland
Elesabeth Reid Niece Unmarried Female 13 1838 - Rathven, Banffshire, Scotland

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

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

Age: 41

Relationship: Servant
Gender: Female
