Does anyone have access to the 1901 census of Scotland please?

Would they help me if so?

Leonard Schwarz born 1846 in Germany and his wife Konstaninia (Constantina) ??

I know of 2 Sons Anthony (b.1885) and Leonard Henry( b.1887).

Any help about this family would help me a lot.

Regards from Nala.

ArgyllGran Report 12 Mar 2018 12:10

A tree on Ancestry says Leonard died 1919, but offers no proof.
Can't be correct, as Constance / Konstandina was a widow per her 1916 travel record.

The tree says Leonard's parents were Jakob Schwarz 1809-75 and Johanna Carolina Haberle 1805-90.

He had several siblings, as well as half siblings, surname Trautmann, from Johanna's first marriage.

Leonard's marriage:

02/Sep/1875 • Schönach, Main-Tauber-Kreis, Baden-Württemberg, Germany
Konstantina DOLD (1846–1930)

Konstantina'a parents given as Joseph Dold and Marcella Schillier - no dates for either of them. Konstantina born at Schonach, Schwarzwald-Baar-Kreis, Baden-Württemberg, Germany. No siblings listed on the tree.

There are a number of photos of Konstantina and others on the tree.

It would be worth your while getting a 14-day free trial to Ancestry, and look at the tree for yourself, as there's far too much to copy here.
Ancestry is where I found most of the records I've copied to your thread.
Just remember to cancel before the end of the 14 days if you don't want to pay a full subscription, which will be taken automatically if you don't cancel.
