Spence & Whyte in Marnoch

lundi 22 août 2016

With new credits and new inspiration, I've started to investigate my great x4 grandparents:

Isobel WHYTE (OTP) and Charles SPENCE (Marnoch) married in 1798 in Turriff.

They had several children in Marnoch over the years:

Isobel and Charles are living together, alone, in the 1841 census in Marnoch.

I didn't find Isobel in the 1851.

There is a Charles Spence, Boarder in Turriff in the 1851, staying with Elizabeth Alexander, Pauper & Head of household. I know of no relationship from mine to Alexanders.

That Charles Spence died in 1855. In both the 1851 and the DC he is listed as a Chelsea Pensioner. I don't know that I think that is consistent with the baptism records of Charles and Isobel? So I don't think he's mine.

So, I'm thinking that Charles and Isobel died between the two censuses. I suppose they might have immigrated??? Their daughter from whom I'm descended did not leave until the mid-1850s.

I can't find burials or DCs for them, but I'll start double checking my work.
