6 living generations of Urquharts
Last year through your wonderful site I made contact with family we had no idea we had. Jean Newell is the 1st cousin of my late Grandfather who was the son of John Urquhart (see picture #2336) and Christina McTavish (see picture #2335). John and his father John both worked on the Poyntzfield estate as gardners. This photo was taken on the 3rd May 2010 and is 6 living generations of Urquharts.
From left ; Jaden (father of baby) Bruce ( great Grandfather of baby) holding Juriyah,Dorothy (Great Great Grandmother of Baby) and Lisa ( Grandmother of baby) and Jean Newell distant cousin of baby. We visited Jean Newell in June in Cromarty and found a very special part of our family, including Jeans lovely Daughter Ruth,and her Husband Iain who made our stay in Cromarty really special.

Hello Briar,
It took me only six years to spot your comment. I do believe you are part of our family too. Just in the last few weeks we have found even more of our Urquharts, all in the USA.
