Biography

This profile is part of the Watten, Caithness One Place Study.

Mary Brims, daughter of Donald Brims and Catherine Cormack, was born about 1821 and baptised in Watten, Caithness, on 16 December 1821.[1]

In 1841 Mary was living in Knapperfield, in the parish of Watten, Caithness, with her parents and siblings Elizabeth, Alexander, George, Peter and James. Donald's trade was farmer.[2]

In 1851 Mary was living in Kirks Lane, Wick, with her brothers William, Alexander and George, a lodger by the name of James Miller and a servant, a warehouse keeper called Heinrich Haub. Mary's trade was "housekeeper" and it seems likely that she was looking after the home of her brothers and their lodgers.[3]
