Biography

Occupation: Farmer

Sources

  • Source is marriage record of John Ferguson and Janet Dunnan.

Birth year is guess based on age of son at time of marriage.

John Ferguson’s record of death identifies his parents as Hendry Ferguson and Margaret Miles. His place of birth was given as Aberdeen in census records.

I was unable to find a couple from Aberdeen with these names.

A DNA test identified cousins in the USA and Australia with common links to the Farquharson family, some with ancestors called Harry Farquharson and Margaret Milne, from Aberdeenshire. The DNA link only makes sense if John’s surname changed from Farquharson to Ferguson when he moved to Glasgow.

Accepting this change has opened up a range of connections confirmed by DNA links through Harry Farquharson and Margaret Milne. The Farquharson family lived in Glenbucket (or Glenbuchat) in Aberdeenshire, north of Crathie.
