Innes
Marriage of
Thomas Innes and Margaret Gibbon, 7 Sept 1731.
Thomas Innes.
Described as "Mariner" at mar 1731.
He mar 7 Sept 1731 [Nigg] to
Margaret Gibbon [or Gibbons].
Thomas might be relation of Margaret's brother's wife
Margaret Innes.
They had issue:
- Betty Innes,
Elizabeth,
bapt Elisabeth, 15 July 1732 [Aberdeen].
She mar 11 June 1764 [Nigg] to John Cormack [or Cormick].
[Wyllie, 2020, p.311]
says he was a "mariner".
They had issue:
- Margaret Cormack,
bapt 31 Mar 1765 [Nigg].
- Anna Cormack,
bapt 10 Feb 1767 [Nigg].
She must be Anne Cormack
who mar 7 Nov 1799
to
William Bruce.
Anne is described at mar as of
Slains, Aberdeenshire
(between Aberdeen and Peterhead).
William Bruce is described at mar as "Fisher", of
Peterhead, Aberdeenshire.
They mar at Peterhead.
See
entry.
This must be her because
she would then be "Mrs. Bruce, daughter of Mrs. Cormach"
who is
buried in
plot 4
of the
Gibbon graves
at Nigg Bay.
Her mother was 1st cousin of
Capt. Robert Gibbon.
We cannot find any other candidate
for Cormach or Cormack marrying Bruce.

He might be "Robert Innes" who witnessed his 1st cousin
Capt. Arthur Gibbon's 2nd marriage, late in life, in 1798.
