Looking for information about my great-aunt, Elizabeth Graham Rankin, born in Camlachie, Glasgow, on July 9, 1876, to Robert Millar Rankin and Elizabeth Park Rankin. I have only found references for her in the 1881 and 1891 censuses, where she was still living with her parents.

If you think she stayed in Scotland then you need Scotlandspeople which is not a subscription site
