Administrative / biographical background: |
A large quantity of the records of the Davie and Ferguson-Davie family of Creedy Park, Sandford were lost in 1915 when fire destroyed the house. Of the earlier records of the family, some 17th century pedigrees were salvaged, but these are very fragile and in most cases are too badly charred to be available to the public. Some pre-1915 records other than the pedigrees have survived, but the collection is chiefly of 20th century family and estate papers. |
