In 1891 search for an Isa WAT*ER*, age range 9 to 11, all Scotland, - as long as the "return all forenames .... " box is checked Isabella and other variants will be picked up, - and you'll very quickly find them, plus the "new" kids, - John, Marion and Janet.

Of the 3 hits, the Central Scotland location is the obvious one to lok at first ...........
