Find Ancestors

Have tried to get a birth for Lewis Macintosh around 1831.He was married to Catherine Crawford and lived at Loechil Cushnie.

Have his death certificate which states he was 57 when he died at Loechil Cushnie 1888.

Death certificate states his parents are John Macintosh and Ann Fraser, both deceased by 1888.

I have tried to find Lewis birth on Scotlands people but had no luck. Also been unable to find anything on his parents. Would like to know if he had siblings and some details of his ancestors.

possible marriage?
JOHN MC INTOSH Pedigree
Male Family

Marriages:
Spouse: ANN FRASER Family
Marriage: 08 JAN 1818 Abernethy, Cromdale, Moray, Scotland

This is a puzzle as I was always led to believe that Lewis [1831] was born and lived all his life in Loechil Cushnie.

He did marry Catherine there and died there but have no proof yet he was born there.

Not too sure about him being in Inverness as this would have been a veery long way to go to work away from home in them days.

1841 might be!

Lewis married Catherine Crawford at Loechil Cushnie in 1857 so perhaps he did come down from Abernethy to work.

Thanks for taking the time to search for me

Ethel

I am afraid i don't know anything about places in Scotland .I am about to go there on holiday for the first time!! Just hope something of what i posted may fit sometime

Enjoy your time here in Scotland and I'll just need to keep on trying to piece it all together..

Tried scotland people again and no Lewis Macintosh's born to John Macintosh and Ann fraser and yet is his parents names on his death certificate.


Thanks Ethel

I have looked on http://www.familysearch.org but can only seem to match Lewis about that age to John mother Janet . You may have better luck as you know the areas.
Just a thought as details on death cert would have been given by someone who thought they knew parents .Could Ann be a 2nd wife to John but the only one that informent would have known.Hope you understand what i am trying to say??

Never thought of that. But have found on Scotlands people birth record for Lewis father John Macintosh and he was born in Loechil Cushnie so think Lewis would have been as well. Perhaps that narrows down my search.

Thanks

Ethel

Are all the family details given on a Scottish marriage cert. i.e does death and marriage info match ok

Just awy to check out the marriage certificate to see what details are on it.

Ethel

Marriage certificate for him names Ann fraser as his mother and John Macintosh as his father just as the death certificate states.

Mystery as to where he was born and when exactly!!

Ethel

Any of the 1841 census look possible?

Think he[ Lewis] definately was born in Loechil Cushnie as all the other family marriages and deaths are there.

Think I may need to look at census records for his parents. John Macintosh and Ann fraser who probably lived around Loechil Cushnie as John was born there in 1802. I now have birth certificate for him .

Ethel

Away to bed so if any one else is trying to help it will be tomorrow before I can respond.

Goodnight

Ethel

just found this
Leochel Cushnie was a parish in the county of Aberdeenshire, in Scotland. It was created in 1845 and abolished in 1975. It was also known as Leochel and Cushnie and Lochell and Cushny.

wonder what it would have been in 1841


Taken from this site about the placehttp://www.visionofbritain.org.uk/unit_page.jsp?u_id=10126186

just caught me as about to sign off.

All the certificates I have opened from that area seem to state parish of Loechil Cushnie.

Thanks again

Ethel
