Notes for Alexander Wake Seton
His birth on Scotland’s people:
Surname/ S City
Year /Maiden Forename e District County/ GROS
Name x MR Data
1922 SETON ALEXANDER WAKE M DAVIOT (ABERDEEN) /ABERDEEN 187/00 0018
In spite of the lack of mother’s surname information in the above, that he was son to his father was also recorded by:
(a) Burke’s Landed Gentry of 1952,
(b) His father’s probate entry of 1953 for which he was an executor,
(c) His gift of the Seton papers to Aberdeen University in 1970.
So no birth certificate has been ordered for him.
____________________
The following Alexander W Seton marriages could be his:
Last name First name Born Died Event Location
SETON ALEXANDER W — — 1945 Chatham, Kent,
SETON ALEXANDER W — — 1979 Maidstone, Kent, England
Burke’s Landed Gents of 1952 reports that on 1 Dec 1945 he married Cynthia Margaret Ellicott. The first of the above two marriages on FindMyPast’s index says he married Rosamund C Ellicott, so a little exploration is needed before going Clear on this.
Burke also says her father was Charles Frank Ellicott and FindMyPast’s indices show his birth in Q1 of 1898, his marriage in Q1 of 1920 to a Geraldine I Phillips and the births of two Ellicott daughters with mother’s maiden names of Phillips in 1922 and 1925. The second daughter was on the birth index as Rosamund C M Ellicott, so it sounds as if she changed her names round by the time of marriage. I conclude that Burke’s info is acceptable without the need for spenidn Big Bucks on certificates.
Additionally these births are found on FindmYPast’s indices for Setons with mother’s maiden names of Ellicott:
Last name First name Born Died Event Location
SETON JUDITH C M 1951 — 1951 Isle of Wight, Hampshire, England
SETON ROBERT J 1954 — 1954 Chatham, Kent, England
Their certificates are also being ordered as they too are probably Watts descendants.
_______________
In 1970 he deposited 13 boxes of family papers of Seton of Mounie, when he sold Mounie Castle, to the University of Aberdeen. Ref No: GB 231 GB 231 MS 2787. See also the web page <http://archiveshub.ac.uk/data/gb231-ms2787>. And particularly see the book “A History of the Family of Seton during eight centuries” by George Seton, in two vols, privately printed in 1896; scanned copies of both volumes available on archive.org.

No death found in England & Wlaes on the records, in 2016 - but then no deaths are on file after 2006.
No deaths in Scotland up to 2014.
