Hi Vicki

I cant see Annie past 1881 (but that doesnt mean she isnt there !).
After this census they seem to disperse but if there is any one person you are interested in from the children or grandchildren just say and i will try and find them.

Hi Tracey,
Wow, thanks so much, you are so quick, I can't keep up.
I just tonight have the death cert of Isabella BAILLIE nee STEVENS 1835-1922, hoping to find her son Robert Gardner BAILLIE but the informant was her neice Euphemia ? some name I can't read, well I can't make out.
I thought that was perhaps her late husband Robert Baillie's neice Euphemia ROBERTSON using a married name, daughter of James Anderson ROBERTSON & Margaret BAILLIE.
But now I see all these other Euphemia's in the STEVENS lot I'm not sure.

As usual I start searching for 1 thing & end up finding all sorts of other things & make myself more questions... good fun really, much better than not finding anything.

& now with all your help I have heaps of new ancestors to add too.
Regards, Vicki

As usual the advice here was good...
I just had an email from SP & the very nice lady is going to arrange a rescan of the very poor census image & send me a new copy asap, so I'm very pleased with that outcome too.
Regards, Vicki

I uploaded the death cert of Isabella STEVENS just in case someone here can decipher the surname of her neice Euphemia ?

Hi Vicki,

I reckon that Euphemia's surname was Speed.

All the best,
