Dear Sally
My gg grandfather was Peter Dunbar who was born 1852/53 in Banffshire, Scotland, the son of David Dunbar - a farmer.
Looking at the OPR, the only candidate on the Scotland's People site is the son of David Dunbar and Janet Mearns, born in Boharm/Elgin, Moray/Banffshire and I have requested a copy of the entry.
David and Janet m. 1838 in Boharm, Moray and had the following children, all in Boharm/Elgin:
James 1838 (1881 cr found in Elgin)
Elizabeth 1841 (no 1881 cr found)
William 1844 (1881 cr found in Elgin)
George 1847 (no 1881 cr found)
Peter 1852 (no Scottish 1881 cr found)
On the IGI, from an LDS member, Janet Mearns Dunbar was born app. 1820 in Boharm and died app. 1853.
Please let me know if these Dunbars link to yours - I would love any information that might confirm/refute this link.
Cheers
Judith
