Hi I have Paterson's who were born in Thurso 1790 through to at least 1804 and they are Elizabeth (1790), David (1793), Margaret (1796), Isabella (1799) and Peter (1804).

Their parents were William Paterson and Elizabeth Largia (Or any other spelling variation as I have not found a definitive surname for her yet), they were married in Aug 16 1781 Saint Nicholas, Aberdeen, Scotland. I have not been able to locate any children dates of birth from 1781 to 1793, but suspect that there has to be some possibly born in Aberdeen.

I think the family must have been on the move as Isabella - my direct ancestor later married in Saint Cuthberts Edinburgh.

I would dearly love to know more about this side of the family so any help would be greatly appreciated.
