Mary, not sure if you have the Scottish Census Records, but I am trying to look up Jane Grieve born 1832-35, parents Peter & Jane Grieve. born 30 Nov 1805 and 1803 respectively. They resided in the High Paisley, Renfrewshire area. I'm wanting to see 1841, 51, 61 in particular - I think Jane was working prior to 1855 when she was married. Her father was deceased prior to 1855, but her mother died in 1878. The name could be spelt Grive, Grieve, Greive.
Many thanks.
Judy

Mary.

Sorry I don`t have any other information on the McGill`s
I know they had one daughter Hannah J c1893. She was with her Grandmother Hannah J Browell in 1891 / 1901.
I really needed to know if the McGill had more children after Hannah.

Many Thanks.

Thank-you for your fine offer , Mary
I am trying to confirm , and add to , some tentative information that I have :

Possible Parents : Alexander Brodie,born 24 June 1879 , somewhere in Scotland
Isabella Campbell ( 1880 - 1972 ),born somewhere in Scotland.
Alexander Brodie and Isabella Campbell may have been married 6th December , 1901 , at Edinburgh , Scotland.

Margaret Brodie (married surname Urquhart ) is an Aunt of mine . She may have died just last year , at or near Bury St.Edmunds , Suffolk, England
Aunt Margaret was thought to have been living in the village of Barrow , Bury St. Edmunds.

Mary , if you can help in any way , I shall be grateful
Sincerely

Hi Ray
Sorry i cannot help you with this request as I do not have access to Scottish bmd records.
As to the death ref for Aunt Margaret 2007 death records have not yet been released.

You will need scotlands people site for the scottish records,it is a pay to view site and very good.

Hi Mary,

I am trying to find more info about my paternal grandmother's parents- Elizabeth Turnbull and her husband.

My grandmother was Florence Stubbs nee Turnbull born c 1878 Leasingthorne, Durham.

1881census Florence age 3. Living 867 Leasingthorne with:
Elizabeth Sanderson age 57( b Merrington, Durham) who is listed as head of household and grandmother to Florence.
also present:
John Harrison age 36 single(son of Elizabeth Sanderson)
Elizabeth Turnbull 29 born c 1852/3 Leasingthorne,Durham.
-married and daughter-in-law of Eliz Sanderson.
William Turnbull 27, born Houghton, Durham.
-married and son- in- law of Elizabeth Sanderson

I assumed from this that William and Elizabeth Turnbull are not married to each other.

In the 1901 census neither Elizabeth Sanderson nor William Turnbull are present.
John Harrison is now head of household and Elizabeth Turnbull is listed as his sister and Florence as his niece -now age 23
There is also a George Turnbull who is listed as John's nephew (and presumably Elizabeth's son)
Address is 47 Windlesham Colliery, Chilton. Durham

I am a little confused as ElizabethTurnbull is supposedly Elizabeth Sanderson's daughter-in- law in first census but info in 1901 census implies that she is her daughter (and John Harrison's sister)

I cannot find details that match Elizabeths Sanderson and Turnbull in other census and am unable to find birth or death records for these two. (also searched Elizabeth Harrison)

I have no idea who Elizabeth married but hope to discover this upon receipt of Florence Turnbull's birth certificate- assuming I've ordered the correct one.

Other information:

FlorenceTurnbull married Matthew Stubbs( Sedgefield Sept 1906 Jul-Sep) and I think she died in 1964 (Durham April- June)

Phew!

Any suggestions / help greatfully received.

Thanks
Jane

Hi Jane
A bit more info on the Sanderson/Turnbull connection.

I have not been able to find a marriage for Turnbull/Sanderson/Harrison.

1891 Front Row Leasingthorn,Middlestone,Durham
Hohn Harrison Head 48 Coal miner b Merrington,Durham
Elizabeth Turnbull Sister M 38 b Leasington
Florence Turnbull Niece 13 Scholar b Leasington
George Turnbull Nephew 8 b Leasington

Had a look at 1871 as follows:
Leasingthorn,Durham
Elizabeth sanderson Head Wid 53 b Merrington
John Sanderson Son 27 Colliery fireman b Merrington
Harrison Sanderson Son 22 Coal miner b Merrington
Elizabeth sanderson Daur 18 Helps in house b Leasington
William Sanderson Son 16 Colliery Banksman b Leasington

1861 Middlestone,Durham
Elizabeth Sanderson Head Wid 45
George Sanderson Son 14 Coal screener
Harrison Sanderon Son 12 Coal screener
William Sanderson Son 9 Scholar
Elizabeth Sanderson Daur 7 Scholar
All children b Leasington

1851 Leasington,Durham
George Sanderson Head 35 Coal miner b Garton Yorks
Elizabeth Sanderson Wife 33 b Merrington
George Sanderson Son 4 b Merrington
Harrison Sanderson Son 2 b Merrington

I hope this will help,The family are not good on ages or places of birth,but I hope you can make some sense of it.
No idea why John Sanderson becomes Harrison.
Very odd,I am not convinced that Turnbull and Elizabeth were married.

Very glad it is your family not mine!!!!
