Just reading the message board, and noticed that the spelling of Nichol has changed to Nicol.
I am descended from Whinton Nicol and Janet Watt.
They married November 3, 1829 in Saint nicholas, Aberdeen.
Children from this marriage;
Isabella b. Sept 10, 1830
Charles b. july 17, 1832
Helen b. Sept 30, 1834
Isaac b. Nov 19, 1836
Margaret b. Aug 12, 1838
William Watt b. Nov 16, 1840
Eliza Gibb b. April 21, 1844
Whinton b. May 8, 1846
Janet King b. May 18, 1851

I am not sure if there is a connection? I do know that some of my family came from Roass-shire, and Charles Nicol settled in Peterhead. Charles became the publisher of the Peterhead Sentinel.
