Biography:
URQUHART, Thomas (fl 1826)
Information is scarce. His book was published in Peterhead and his name is given on the title page as “Thomas Urquhart Old Deer.” Both Old Deer and Peterhead are in Aberdeenshire, but the only Thomas Urquhart who fits for date and location was a farmer who, by the time of the 1841 Census was located in Cruden (south of Peterhead), married to Catherine Urquhart and with five children. However, his birthplace is given as Fraserburgh, Aberdeenshire, and the identification is not definite. (findmypast.co.uk 4 Dec. 2020) SR
