Aberdeenshire memories
Fernie Brae Cottage
I was about 3 when I traveled from Bagshot in England to Lumphanan to visit my grandparents, Barbara and Tom Davidson. They lived at Fernie Brae Cottage and were tenant crofters and wood cutters. My mother, Beth Davidson lived there as a child with her siblings Charlie, Sandy, Dorothy and Sheila. She married my father in Lumphanan and my brother Malcolm Davidson Berry was born at Fernie Brae. My clearest memory of that visit was of a lovely little stream which ran along the side of the road, now apparently nothing more than an overgrown ditch. The little stone cottage still stands today and is even specifically marked on Google Earth. I live in Australia now but still feel a very strong connection to my Scottish ancestry and in particular, to Lumphanan and Fernie Brae Cottage.
Betty Robb
Does anybody have any memories to share about my mother? She lived at Waterridgemuir Cottage, Sauchen. I am hoping there may be someone who may have some relatives that may remember her, she was called Betty Robb, this may be as far back as 1940.

SHEWAN , Banchory Ternan Parish
My genealogical journey has brought me to Banchory Ternan Parish of yesteryear ...
Two of my Shewan-surnamed folk were born there : William Shewan in 1883 , and one of his sisters Isabella Shewan , in about 1885.
Two of my New Zealand - born Shewan relatives made the nostalgic journey to Banchory just a few years back ie about 2006. There at the local library , they learned that lots of Shewans still live in the area ...

My wife and I, were to go to the Alford Carnival where upon on going through the Turn style; still clutching the change given to me on paying for our tickets, there was a man which was stood some twenty feet away from the Turn Style. He was one of the showmen, and appeared to be dressed as some fortune teller. He was stood by a small card table, where upon he had a pack of ordinary playing cards. Having seen me coming his way and on noticing me, he gestured to me to come towards him. Having got me to his table he was to ask me if he could show me a trick? Seeing that I had clenched my hand he proceeded to pull my fingers open to reveal the change within my hand. Without as much as a word, took hold of a fifty pence piece and manipulated his fingers in a way so that the coin moved along his fingers until when, he dropped the coin... Read more
