1891 / 1901 census lookup for FRASER - Closed thank you.
« on: Friday 12 December 08 20:16 UTC (UK) »

Can anyone help me locate the family of Peter Fraser and his wife Mary in Dundee.  They married in Dundee in 1883, had a son (Peter) born in Greenock 1887 and another son (Alan) born in Dundee in 1895. 

Did they have any other children or were any of their parents living with them?  Peter is believed to have been born in Dundee in 1864.  His wife was born around 1859, but I do not have any birth place for her.

Many Thanks again Mum44.

Two sets of twins out of 9 children.  What a handful !   The family later emigrated to Canada where Peter and Allan both volunteered for the Canadian Forces in 1915.

This information has helped enormously.

Hi

Have you got the marriage cert from Scotlands People. This would give Mary's parent's names which would help identify her:

1883 Peter Fraser and Mary Dickson, St Peter, Dundee


Regards

I have now got the Marriage record.  Both fathers are clear enough but the maiden names of the mothers are not very clear.  Enough to allow me to dig a bit further.  Thanks
