The actual page has date of birth,weight etc for him....

Yes that is her. I don't know when she went to America I know she was in Scotland when my grandmother married in 1904

Thank you so much for that. I will try that. She died in America as far as I know she never went back to Scotland

Is this her in the 1901 Scottish census?

I have looked but I cannot see her in the US census records or passenger lists into New York or Boston.

If her possible U.S.A. connection was related to her membership of the order they may have records of that. Below are details of their current secretary and how to contact him.

Good luck.

Can anyone please help me find my great aunt. She was born in Glasgow 1878. She married John Mitchell and at some stage went to live in U.S.A I think New York.

She had a high position in the Order of the Eastern Star and when she died she got a white sisters funeral.

I think she died between 1930 and 1941 but can't be sure.
