  • Register of Baptisms Sept 1838 to Mar 1848
    This index to the Register of Baptisms for St Nicholas parish in Aberdeen from September 1838 to March 1848 contains details of around 5,000 people. The information contained in this index shows the date of baptism, the name and occupation (where noted) of the father, the name of the mother, and name and sex of the child where it may not be immediately obvious. Further information in the Register includes the names of witnesses. The names have been transcribed as written, so some may not conform to modern spellings. A quirk of binding means that the book begins at page 55, with page 1 coming after page 352. This means there are two different pages numbered between 55 and 268, with different entries. In this index, please note the page number of the index as well as the page number of the entry - if the entry you are interested in is after page number 51, the entry will be in the second part of the volume. If it is before page 51 of this index, it will be in the first part of the volume. If you would like to know the full entry, please make a note of the names of the people concerned, and the page number of the entry then email [email protected] with your query. Our thanks go to volunteer Christina Leech for the monumental effort in transcribing this volume.

  • The Tweedie Family
    The Tweedie Family - a genealogy - McNichols, Tweedie & Wyckoff 2005 Wood-cut on title page from Reminiscences of the Royal Burgh of Haddington; John Martine; John Menzies & Co., Edinburgh and Glasgow, 1883. About this book and the authors: This book is the work of many hands. In 1990 Edwin Tweedie of Wheaton, Illinois hired genealogist Hazel Weir to research the Tweedie family in Scotland. She put him in touch with several cousins in Scotland, who were descendants of great, great, uncle Alexander Tweedie. May Tweedie Stephen responded to Edwin’s letter and a meeting was arranged in Scotland. It was at this gathering that the idea of a book about the family history was born. The primary genealogist was Diane McNichols of Scotland who undertook this work at the behest and in the employ of of Ann Tweedie Rennie of East Lothian, Scotland in 1993. In 2001, with most of the research having been done, Mr. McNichols, the publisher and husband of Diane, took ill and work on the book was interrupted for several years. Despairing of the book ever being finished, Edwin with encouragement from his daughter, Lynne, consulted Ellen (Tweedie) Wyckoff, his niece, also of Wheaton to undertake to finish the project. Ellen had previously done most of the scanning of photographs for the book at the inception. Ellen, having only a preliminary galley proof to work from, had the text OCR Scanned into a workable format and proceeded to organize and format the book. She is also responsible for the style and decorations throughout, which are either taken from authentic sources or designed by her entirely.

VI A UT VIRTUTE. I VERNESS A. & W. MACKENZIE. MDCCCXCI. I INSCRIBED TO THE MEMORY OF MARY CHISHOLM OF CHISHOLM (AFTERWARDS MRS. JAMES GOODEN, LONDON), A noble-souled woman, whose warm-hearted and patriotic conduct towards her father's and, subsequently, her mother's tenants in Strathglass, under the most trying circumstances, first attracted the author's attention to her clan, and without whose inspiration this book would never have been written. PREFACE. :o:- The History of the Chisholms, as given in this volume, is not an ambitious work. The materials are not extensive, and those available are not of an important or stirring character. I claim to have disposed of the absurd and ground- less contention, so long maintained by the Northern clan, that they sprang originally from the Earls of Caithness and Orkney, and to have established, on the contrary, that they first came to the Highlands from the Scottish Borders, and that all the families of the name, north and south, can trace their descent to one common ancestor, heard of for the first time in Scotland in the county of Roxburgh towards the end of the thirteenth century.
