Research Notes

This profile was initially created with the name back to front. The LNAB should be changed to Esson as per the birth record.

A source could not be found for the birth of Isabella using the location originally given of Kingussie and Insch, Inverness-shire and a date of 21 February 1834. When expanding the location a birth was found with with the date of 21 March 1834 in Strathdon, Aberdeenshire. The parents on this record being David Esson and Margaret Gordon. The Death source tells us that her mothers maiden name is Gordon which would lead to this being the correct record.

Hi there

Can you please change the LNAB for this profile to Esson as per the birth source - the profile seems to have initially been created with the first and last names round the wrong way.

Thanks
