Students (from Birse)

at the Marischal College in Aberdeen

The Marischal College was a separate university until 1860 when it merged with King's to form the University of Aberdeen.  Entries were in Latin before about 1850.  As I cannot read Latin, they are transcribed as best as possible here from the Latin source.   If you can provide translations I would be happy to add them. 

Additional footnotes are contained after the "/".
