The Peterhead OPR record of the event [1] reads:- ‘4th August 1819. John Forman, fisherman in Buchanhaven and Margaret Bruce his wife had a son baptised and named John’. When I started researching this part of my ancestry, I found it confusing that there were two John Forman’s one the son of the other who both married Margaret Bruce’s. To avoid confusion when both are being discussed together, I will call the father John Sr.

  • Projects Funded
    NorthConnect Legacy Fund Summary of Awards 2017-2020 Between 2017 and 2020, £59,907 has been awarded by the NorthConnect Legacy Fund to community groups benefiting the Fund area. Some examples showing the range of activities funded are shown below, followed by a full list of awards. Aberdeenshire Sailing Trust: Rescue boat engine In 2017, the Fund awarded Aberdeenshire Sailing Trust £1,000 towards a rescue boat engine to support activities taking place at the Trust’s Peterhead centre. The cover provided by the rescue boat meant that the Trust was able to deliver taster sessions for schools, RYA courses, race training and RYA junior sailing courses. The boat supported disabled schools sailing and weekly disability club. 538 people of various ages benefited. The vital role of the rescue boat was highlighted in an incident in September 2019, when a sudden squall caused three dinghies to capsize, throwing ten teenage sailors into the water. This prompted the emergency services to launch a large scale response, involving helicopters and lifeboats. However, the Trust’s instructors were able to use the rescue boat to get everybody quickly and safely ashore without injury or the assistance of emergency services. Following the incident, the Buchan Coastguard issued a statement saying that “This incident had the potential to be far more serious in outcome except for some key factors… We would like to thank those involved for being properly equipped.” Press and Journal; 6 September 2019; Instructors praised as 10 teens rescued from North Sea in ‘violent storms’. Mintlaw Academy Therapeutic Garden In 2017, the Fund awarded the Mintlaw Academy Therapeutic Garden £400 toward fencing and equipment.
