A Conn Family
I have some information but a bit all over the place as this is my dad's birth mums family and he was adopted at 6 weeks old.
James Conn I think looking at an old photo I would say would have been born around the 1900's as his sister Annie (dad's birth mum) was born 16. 2. 1910 and she was the 3rd child. Eldest child was Alexander Conn then James, Annie, Bob (William), Georgina, William, and Hector being the youngest. Their parents names were Alexander and Georgina Conn (nee Morrison) and as far as I can make out they lived in the Inverurie area as Annie was a house servant at Nether Blackhall farm when my dad was born. My dad was named Charles Conn at birth and was adopted by Robert Scott O'Farrell and Sophia O'Farrell (nee Thomson) of Park Street Aberdeen in July 1934. He then became Charles O'Farrell.
