Mulben Station 1901 1909
A Memory of Mulben.
My grandfather, Robert Urquhart, was a Signalman/ Porter, employed by the Highland Railway. He had served at Forres and Elgin before transferring to Mulben, about 1901. Robert (Bob) and wife Margaret (Maggie) already had three children in 1901; however their brood increased by another three bairns during their occupancy of Mulben Station.
The Urquhart family's next move was to a house named 'Calternach', still in Mulben. The family occupied that house from about 1909 to about 1915, during which time another three children were born. Robert Urquhart had left his railway job in about 1909 and was subsequently employed by Glentauchers Distillery as a Maltman.
