Webmaster's notes:

Details of son James and the dates for James senior are taken from ANESFHS Ancestor Chart 8749.

Mary Lazell has a copy of James' death certificate which states his parents to be George Mutch, labourer (deceased) and Jane Mutch nee Ogilvie (deceased).

I have found a copy of son George's death registration on the Scotland's People website.

Sheila Mason contacted me with details of daughter Helen's family and her connection:

Her daughter Helen Scatterty married John Duncan at Rayne, Aberdeenshire on 31 August 1901 and their daughter Helen Mutch Duncan (March 1904) who married Alexander Milne at The Queen's Hotel, Montrose, Angus on 1 December 1927 was my grandmother

The ANESFHS booklet for the burial ground of Kirkton of Rayne (AA176) gives three entries relevant to this family.
