GORDON, Alexander Merchant in Przasnysz, Poland 1 2
User ID: K460.
General Notes:
"Gordon, Alexander, son of Patrick Gordon of Harlaw and Rachel Leslie, emigrated from Aberdeen in April 1680 (see Note below) to Danzig, a merchant in Warsaw, Poland, a birth brief dated 1697 [APB]; a merchant in Poland 1707 [CRA # 97]." (Scots in Poland)
Note:
The birth brief in volume five of The Miscellany states that the year of departure from Aberdeen was 1688, not 1680. This would be more in keeping with the ages of the children of a woman born in 1653. 1
