Wedding Wednesday - The Old Manse

The former manse in Low Street New Aberdour, Aberdeenshire, Scotland.

It was in this manse on the 6th of March, 1847 that my 3rd great grandparents, Robert Forsyth and Helen Thomson married.

Then on the 8th of February 1873 
their son (my great great grandparents) 
Robert Forsyth jnr and Jannet 
(Jessie) Farquhar were also married at the manse.

I have only just found out that the current sign "The Old Manse" near the door was made by Patrick Forsyth of Fraserburgh who is the grandson of Robert Forsyth Senior and nephew of Robert Forsyth Junior.
