Anna Shepherd
Description
Anna Shepherd, also known as Nan, was a Scottish novelist and poet. Born on February 11th 1893, she was also well-known in educational circles in Aberdeen. We are able to trace her using Census records held at Aberdeen Central Library. Here is an extract of the 1901 Census. Aged 8, Anna Shepherd was listed as living in a house called "Dunvegan", in the village of Cults, part of the civil parish of Peterculter. She lived there with her parents, John Shepherd, aged 48, and Jane Smith Shepherd, aged 36. Her brother, Francis John, was 10 years old. Her grand-mother Ann Shepherd used to live with the family too. A domestic, Isabella Gordon, aged 19, is also listed as part of the household. Aberdeen Central Library holds Census returns from 1841 to 1901 on microfilm.
