Margaret (Peggy) Troup

  General Notes:

Don Nicol notes Growing up in Aberdeen Scotland in the 50's we often visited Portsoy where, as your site correctly indicates, George Stuart Begg Nicol had had the baker's shop and it was still going in those days and for all I know may still be in the family. I remember Aunt Peg, doubtless Peggy Troup in your pedigrees and we would also visit the ruins of the croft and rope & sail making business at Back Green. The ruins are still there today I believe. The Hoggies Farm at Deskford where the earlier Nicols tended to be born was on the market last year.

Margaret married Douglas Nicol, son of George Stuart Begg Nicol and Mary Hay Reid. (Douglas Nicol was born in 1914 in Portsoy, Banffshire Scotland and died circa 1977 in Inverness, Inverness-Shire Scotland.)
