Gorden (M)>

Gorden (male)

Can be spelt:Gordon (M)
Feminine form:Gorden (F)
   
Source(s): FreeCEN 1841 Census of Aberdeenshire
Notes:

Scottish spelling variant of Gordon.

The 1841 and 1881 Censuses of Aberdeenshire have a small number of occurrences of the spelling Gorden as a male forename, a spelling variant of Gordon.

A correspondent [GB] has reported the spelling Gorden for the wife on a memorial inscription in Aberdeenshire. This would probably have been the family's preferred spelling although the death certificate recorded her name as Gordon.
