My grandmother's sister, Hughina Mowat, b. Wester, Wick, 1883 m. Thomas Alexander Macadie, carpenter, some time after 1901. (at the 1901 census, she was aged 17 and single)
I've not been able to locate their marriage cert, although their death certs state that they were married to each other.
Thomas died Glengolly,Thurso, in 1949, Hughina same place in 1951. A daughter, "M. Macadie" registered her mother's death, a daughter "M. Macleod" registered her father's death. I don't know if this is one and the same person, giving maiden/married surnames?
I've not been able to locate Thomas's birth cert either, although his death cert gives his parents' names as Thomas Alexander Macadie and Margaret Bain.
Can anybody help me with some info about the Macadie family -or suggest how I could find out more? Out of 13 children, Hughina was the closest to my granny in age, but died the year I was born, so it would be nice to find out a bit more about her life & any relatives.
Thanks for reading this!:)
