Notes par Margaret Loban

I can give you a few more dates for Margaret, she was born to Robert Loban and Isabella Laing on 10 Jul 1808 in Fochab
ers, Moray, 7th of 9 children, died on 21 Jan 1844 in Fochabers. At the time she married William Farquhar the family were living in the boat building village of Kingston, across the Spey River from F
ochabers, but they had moved back to Fochabers by 1841 Census, probably after her father died. Her mother died in 1855 and by that time only 3 of her 9 children survived her.

On the 1841 Cens
us Margaret is living with four daughters, a governess and two servants in South Street, St Andrews, Fife. William seems to be a boarder with a Tutor also in St Andrews - so I guess they moved from P
erth to St Andrews (where the University is) when the 12 years old William went away to school. Margaret died on 21 Jan 1844 in Fochabers (pre death certificates) the obituary in the Elgin Courant on
the 1 Feb 1844 says "Death in Fochabers on the 21st uin (sic) Mrs Margaret Loban widow of the late General William Farquhar of EICS." And the daughters are with 'a cousin' (Farquhar) on the 1851 cen
sus in 21 Coates Crescent, Edinburgh.

William married Margaret Loban in *London*, and do you know if he went by a nickname of 'George', as you can see from this there was some confusion in the
newspaper announcement. The London really puzzles me, having been here you know that London is just about as far away as you can get and still be on the mainland. I have also found entries for thei
r marriage online in East India Company-linked papers.

Margaret's youngest sister Jane supported their mother and a succession of nieces and nephews as well as her own illegitimate daughter between
1841 and 1851 as a dressmaker, and she put up a gravestone, which was not a cheap thing. Margaret's sister Grace married a Tax Inspector who I am beginning to think she meet in Perth - they married i
n Bellie but the Banns were also read out in Perth implying that he lived there at the time. All the sisters I have found married local men; farmers and fishers.
