Hi

It's not possible to work just from their names - we need to know when and where they were born

You need to work backwards from your mother to get that info - unless you already have it

When and where were your grandparents born   

Was Annie's maiden name Clowe?  If not - where does Clowe fit in?

Have you checked SP for the Graham/Clowe marriage will will give you their parents names and mothers maiden name

If they were born before 1911 - you can look them up on the 1911 census which is available on Scotlands People

So Clowe was your grandmothers married name and her maiden name was Graham - is that correct?

So what was your grandmothers christian name and when and where was she born?

Yes - I know but you have given us no info whatsoever to trace him so the only way is via the info you presumably do have (ie) your grandmothers name and birth details

Can you please answer the rest of my question above re: your grandmother - you appear to have deleted your previous reply which just said her name was Thomasina

You say in your opening posts that parents were Robert & Annie

The 1901 census for Lanarkshire has a Thomasina Graham aged 8 (1893) b Dumfries - parents Robert & Helen

Could this be her?  Any info re: her siblings to help find the right parents?

That is the type of info which should have been included at the outset.

Are you referring to Thomasina Grahams birth cert?

If so - Please post full details of her birthplace

Her fathers full name and his occupation

Her mothers christian name and maiden name
