The Families of GARDINER, MERCER & FOGGO

Gilbert GARDINER and Emmillia MERCER were married on 22-Nov-1700 in Perth, Scotland

The FOGGOs were for over 200 years the factors for the Lords of NAIRN, whose estate was at Loak, by Bankfoot. When they all sided with the Jacobite Bonnie Prince Charlie in 1745, the troops turned them out and the NAIRNs were exiled. Nairn House was eventually destroyed in 1764. Jacobite symphisers raised funds for the now poverty-stricken FOGGOs, and they furnished an innon the main road which attracted much custom. This inn was still in the family's possesionin 1836 and was run by Jean ALLAN with 60 acres attached.

WILLIAM AND MARY FOGGO are assumed to be siblings.
