193 Hay Family Craigton
Hay Family Craighead
Ken Cruickshank has again kindly provided some photographs relating to the Hay family of Craighead Belnacraig
Picture 1.
Local knowledge stated that this was a photo of Lucy Rose, dressed as a flower girl and taken in the walled garden of Auchernach House, Glen Nochty c 1905.
Her father, G. F. Rose, was laird of Auchernach Estate and had other properties in N.E. Scotland. Her nanny at the time was Mary Ann Cruickshank 1878 - 1946, before she married about 1907 George Hay of Easterbuchat (subsequently famer in Craighead Glenbuchat - see entry 116 and entry 1153) .
George and Mary Hay's first grandchild (daughter of Mary Ann (Leah) and Jock Davidson ( see entry 117) was named after Lucy Rose. I note from a biography of G. F. Rose on this site, that he had no children - ( see entry 385).
Perhaps the information given to me in the early1980's was mistaken. Can anyone enlighten us on this?
