I did not have this man on my database reading over you can see b Dundee Mother staying in Hamilton, Lanarkshire why would I take note....no NE connection (I cover Aberdeenshire Banffshire Kincardinshire and Morayshire with Orkney and Shetland also after many years of researching). Only when you dig deeper you notice The family did stay in Aberdeen in 1901. So thanks to an Aberdeen gravestone William Mann Fraser is now my new entry. Thanks to Alex taking time to see the info in Springbank Cemetery.
Does this man appear on a memorial you might know about?
