Marriage: Alexander Hacket on 16 Feb 1733/34 in Alvah, Banff ¹

General Notes:

"Here lyes the body of ALEXANDER HACKET sometime famer in Ardlaw d. 30 Apr 1773 aged 73; his spouse ELSPAT (sic) LOVIE d. 28 June 1780 aged 76; son JOHN HACKET sometime farmer in Ardlaw & about 10 yrs tacksman of Mill of Boyndie d. 20 July 1829 in 90th year"

Likely that Elspet was 66 not 76. This would better fit with the ages of the her siblings as appearing on many ancestry public trees although I'm not sure of the original sources. Elspet appears on these trees as b1704 and b1713 about equally.

Elspet married Alexander Hacket, son of William Hacket and Unknown, on 16 Feb 1733/34 in Alvah, Banff.¹ (Alexander Hacket was born Cal 1700, died on 30 Apr 1773 and was buried in Kirkyard of Peathill, Fraserburgh, Aberdeen ³.)
