Margaret Peddie Robertson of Perthshire Scotland
Hi,
I've hit a stonewall and hope that someone might be able to help me. I'm researching my thrid great grandmother Margaret Peddie and her parents John Peddie and Margaret Stewart. According to the information I have she was born about 1806. I have her marrying David Robertson 22 December 1825 at Inchture, Perthshire, Scotland, United Kingdom. She died 15 March 1859 at Rattray, Perthshire, Scotland. Her husband predecased her. Now with all this information you would think it would be easy to go back another step, but thus far I've had no luck. Any help would be very much appreciated.
Thank you, Stuart

Hello Stuart
I am currently my fifth great grandfather Joseph Doctor, who married a Helen Peddie on 20 Jun 1807 in Inchture, Perthshire, Scotland. Have you got any further on this side of your family, as its a strong possibility Helen Peddie may be John Peddie's sister. Any help you could give would be appreciated

Hello, I haven't been having much luck with the Peddie family history. I know think that John's wife may have been named Elisabeth, but that's as much as I know right now. I keep digging and if I find anything I will pass it along. Stuart

Re: Margaret Peddie Robertson of Perthshire Scotland
My Great Great Grandmother's maiden name was Elizabeth Peddie. She was born at Dull in November 1797 and had a Brother named John. I am not sure how many of a family there were or the period over which they were born. She married William Gow at Redgorton on 23rd May 1830 and died on 2nd April 1894 at the Muirton of Ardblair Blairgowrie Like you I have had great difficulty in getting any information on the Peddies and all I have been able to establish is that her parents were John Peddie and Elizabeth McKerracher but no dates. Hopefully this may be of help to you. Regards - Gordon

Re: Margaret Peddie Robertson of Perthshire Scotland
I don't have anything to help sorry but I am interested in the surname Peddie as I believe my 7 greats grandmother was Barbara Peddie who died in Liff, Angus on the 1 August 1754 and who married Patrick Thomson on the 3 August 1679 in Fowlis Wester, Perthshire. My mtDNA of this line is Haplogroup I most likely Viking so if you have a connection to these Peddies and had mtDNA done from this line I would like to know if it matches, to hopefully prove or disprove that Barbara Peddie is my ancestor.
