I have been researching the WEIR family of WICK and would be grateful if anyone who has local knowledge would care to share information on them.
Their Pedigree is :
John Weir b. about 1710 married Janet Henry b. about 1710; parents of
John Weir b. 1734 married Elizabeth Doull (b. 1739) at Wick in 1760; parents of
Donald Weir b.1766 married Barbara Doull (b. 1776) at Wick in 1797 then Elizabeth Manson at Wick in 1806 Donald and Elizabeth were parents of
Donald Weir b. 1806(also Robert) married Margaret Sinclair (b. 1808) in 1830; parents of
James Weir b.1834 (also Janet, Margaret, Ellen, Donald, Isabella, Charlotte and Catherine) married Margaret Gunn (b. 1837); parents of
James Sinclair Weir b. 1868(also Margaret S. and Elisabeth I.)
Does this ring any local bells ?! The family though mainly based in Wick also lived in Upper Greenland and Bower.
Any help would be most gratefully received.
