To assist you in locating the migration and the geographic relationships of your ancestors, we added a parish map to our site. It emphasizes how an expanding family could extend through 3 to 6 parishes, all within a days walk!
When you visit the area you quickly realize it is a very small area . . . .and with so many Birnies!
For time/distance scale, the 6 km walk from Rosehearty to Fraserburgh only takes about 2 hours.
