Does anyone have information or is an ancestor of John Anderson b. Kenmore Perthshire Scotland abt. 1844. He married Jane McNicol b. 1846 Glenorchy & Inishail Argyll and they are on 1881 census living in Glenorchy & Inishail Argyll. The family at that time consisted of John, b. 1872, Peter, b. 1873, Donald b. 1875, Margaret. b. 1877, Alexander b. 1879, Janet b. 1881. They are on the 1891 census with 2 more children, Helen b. 1886, Donald b. 1891all born Glenorchy & Inishail but then they seem to disappear and I cannot find them anywhere in Scotland on 1901 census. John was a tailor in 1881 but was a road surfaceman in 1891. Quite a change of direction!! There are two Donalds but maybe the older one died and the younger one was given the same name as often happened at that time. Regards Sheila |
