    My mum born 1916 had a thing for searching out family and their graves. She discovered in the 1980's the someone other than her relative was burried in the family plot. As far as I know this was her first visit to Nellfield Cemetery, when I was a small child mum would take me through the graveyard besides the Duthie Park, she'd show me my grandparents grave there was nothing spooky in her interest and like everyone else wished to know where her family came from. The Nellfield Cemetery incident, mum went to the person in charge of the graves. She complained about this imposter in our family grave. Knowing my mum, I could almost imagine her telling the man to dig up the imposter and put them elsewhere! My Mum and her sister had a family pedigree which listed all those related to us. It was commissioned back in the 1800's and included were not just very detailed family trees naming just about every one married into the family. There are several family tree's as we are familiar with them plus stories about the people were included from interviews with family members. It traces back what would be my Great Uncle x 6 generations, Alexander (Sandy) Kinnarid who was born in Gamrie and ended up in Banff as a herdie a young male tended with looking after cows. on this paticular dat Sandy was tasked to take the cows down to the river Devron to water them. Like many others he was illiterate so he used a stick and would mark a notch with his knife on the stick for each cow he had. This dat he stood in awe watching boats of red coat soldiers coming over the river from McDuff. He missed a soldier that came up behind him, upon seeing 16 notches on the stick he arrested Sandy as a traitor he was taked to the Duke of Cumberland who upon hearing the tale declared sandy a traitor and had him hanged from the nearest tree. This was on April 13/14th 1746 two to three days before the battle at Culloden Moor.

    Given the fact that people looked so much older hundred years ago, there is no way she was 45 in this picture. And if she truly had rheumatism she would have shunned the cold. I know this because my cousin (who is rheumatic) moved from Sweden (where we live) to France

      I agree. I think she was in her late 20s or 30s. Rheumatism is a painful condition but the west coast of Scotland is warm due to the Gulf Stream. Rheumatism is certainly painful in cold weather. Thank you so much for watching x

    Wow, that brought back many memories, I used to play inside the tower way back in the mid 1960's, you could easily access the building back then, me and my pals used to run up and down the stairwell and on to what was left of the first floor, we even played up on the very top of the tower, no health and safety back in those far off days! I remember also there was a celler and a kitchen in the basement and a medieval loo!I visited it a couple of years ago on holiday, it was all boarded up with a new roof on it, I longed to go inside and have a look round by alas it wasn't possible. Maybe someone in the future with a vision and a load of dosh could open it up as a tourist attraction which would fund some much needed repair work. Still in all a great old relic and well worth a visit. Thank you so much for posting this, ah happy days indeed.

      Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed it. I can well imagine it would've been a great play area. It's open during Doors Open Days in September, but that's it. It needs a lot of work, and money, and yes, it would be great to have it as a tourist attraction. Maybe one day.
