Marriage Notes:
"Of Agnes Montgomerie or Montgomery, wife of Andrew Moir, I. of Oldmill, bom 1650, died March 1730 .... I have been able to find out very lttle about. All I presently know of her family is from a scrap of paper, amongst the family papers of Mr. George Moir of Stoneywood, near Manchester, addressed to Provost More, i.e., George More of Raeden, who was Provost of Aberdeen 1795-97, and again from 1807-9 .... - written in the handwriting, I think, of his cousin, the late Dr. James Moir, of Aberdeen, viz.,
" Hay of Renneston (a property in Logie-Buchan, Aberdeenshire, now held by the Dingwall family), went to Berwickshire or Northumberland (more probably Ayrshire) and married a Miss Montgomerie. Her sister, Agnes Montgomerie, came with her, and married Oldmill (that is, Andrew Moir)."
