March 24th

On this day in 1837 Ann Donald was born.  She is your 3xgreat aunt, the daughter of your 3xgreat grandparents, farmer George Donald and Ann Matthew. Ann was their 5th child - and six more followed.  She was born in Monquhitter in Aberdeenshire.  The family lived at Greystone Croft which was the property of the Earl of Fife.

Also on this day your first cousin 3x removed Ann Follie died in 1919.  Ann was the niece of the above Ann Donald but I have no idea of which sibling of Ann's was this Ann's mother.  Ann Follie was raised by her grandparents (George Donald and Ann Matthew), never married and was a domestic servant.  She died at Lambtech croft and was buried in Monquhitter churchyard with her grandparents.  She was 54 years old.
