Memories Of Mary Jane Duncan
A Memory of Kirkton of Rayne.
My grandmother told me she worked in a 'big house' in Old Rayne when she was young. She was in service, and I think called a housekeeper. She told me she was paid one guinea every month and she used to put it in a box and save up. Her name was Mary Jane Duncan and I have seen on the internet her name on an old Census as Mary Jane Duncan from Rayne, Aberdeenshire, aged 6 months. I am very interested to know where the 'big house' is - if it is still there - so I could come and visit. I am a writer and have recently self-published a book. I use my granny's name as my pen-name. If anyone can help me find the 'big house' I would be delighted to hear from you.
Kind regards. I can be contacted at email: maryjaneduncan444@googlemail.com
