March 15th

On this day in 1930 George Christie Paterson married Elizabeth Webster.  George is your first cousin twice removed.  The couple were married in Netherton, Greeness, Aberdeenshire.   He was 28 years old and a farm labourer.  She was 39 and a widow.  A bit of an age gap!

Beyond this, I know nothing much about the two of them.  There doesn't seem to have been any children and I don't know when she died.  He lived to the ripe old age of 89.  But of interest perhaps is the fact that my mum and Alex visited George at his home at 14 Chapel Street in Turriff in 1978.
