Hi Jim

I'm struggling to see the family together in 1901  Undecided Where did you get the above info from for 1901?

The only thing that I can see, with age perhaps mis-transcribed for Sarah is this entry:

Sarah, 5, and Agnes 5, McEwan showing as visitors in a Fleming household in Forfar Angus. Both girls show as born in Alloa.

Hi Monica, thanks for that. I think they are probably both correct. Sarah was previously married to a William Reay and William was his son. Do you have the family in 1891? I don't know when she married William but if young William was 13 it suggests before 1891.

William Reay.......
Sarah Reay 26
William Reay 3

So a marriage round about 1887 I would guess?

Many thanks. Jim

That's great! Many thanks.
Can I now go back another census?
1881
William Elliot (tt) Father
Elizabeth Elliot Mother
Sarah Jane Elliot
William Elliot ?

This is Sarah Jane, later Rae and later still McEwan.

Hi Jim

This looks to be Sarah Jane's birth, to parents William and Elizabeth (Logan):

Sarah is alone for 1881 and already up in Alloa:

Thanks for the look ups Monica, they have been a great help in tying up some loose ends. The McEwans were a fairground family so it has been really difficult in following their trail around Scotland. Jim
