Hi Chris,

Do you know his wife's name, the year of birth of any of the children? Did they stay in Scotland?

Liz

Hi again Chris

You have to ask for a look up on 'Scotlandspeople'

BTW....which one was yours in the end? I gave you 3 different 1861 census all different Alexanders!

Good luck
Gerri x

PS...it's usual to work backwards...not forwards.

Earlier you found for me Alexander Anderson 1855c I am unaware of his origins apart from he was born North Scotland Elgin area. I do know his offspring were called Eric,Mary, Archie and Annie there may be a few more, is it possible to do an 1881/91/1901 search to see if you can find him, I would really appreciate it. This is for his G grandson who really wants to know his roots, he is seriously ill and 8o yrs old, I would like him to have this info before he leaves us.
many thanks
Chris
