Elspet Reid was born in 1789 at Tullynessie and Forbes, Aberdeenshire, Scotland, and baptised on the 10th of April, the illegitimate daughter of Alexander Reid and Mary Murray.[1]
Elspet Reid married Robert Urquhart in Old Deer, Aberdeenshire, Scotland, United Kingdom on the 5th of December 1813.[2]
In 1851, Elspet is in North Street, Old Deer, Buchan, Aberdeenshire, Scotland
In 1861 Elspet is in Main Street, Deer, Part of Parish Deer, Aberdeenshire, Scotland
In 1871, Elspet is in The Main Street, Old Deer, Deer, Aberdeenshire, Scotland
Elspet Urquhart passed away at Old Deer, Aberdeenshire, Scotland, United Kingdom in 1872[3]
Elspet's son Alexander names her as illegitimate and the daughter of Mary Murray on her death certificate. I am tending to dismiss this, as the only Elspet born in 1789 is listed on Scotlands People as born to Alexander Reid in Balfour. He married Elspet or Jean Elmslie and I have her younger brother John's death naming his mother as Jean Elmslie. There is only one Elspet born to an Alexander Reid and no Mary Murray born in the period. Robert and Donald Urquhart named below on the headstone, both died in Victoria, Australia.Urquhart-93 22:50, 25 August 2018 (UTC)
