• Notes

  There ARE two marriage entries for the same day for William Robertson a nd Christian Wilson in the parish entrys for the parishes of Udny and F overan. In the Entry for the parish of Foveran it states that Willam Ro bertson is of the parish of Udny, and in the parish records for Udny it m ay state (cant read writing) that the entruys were added later, but as i t is exactly the same date it can be assumed with some degree o cerntai nty that this is the same event entered twice, unless there is other ev idence that surfaces later to contridct this
