ancestry has only so much to see

You cannot rely on A******y for Scottish research. They have no original BMD or census documents, only transcriptions of the census. Anything you find there must be checked by looking at the originals, which are only available at Scotland's People.

This may be the death of the mother (ms: Annie Cant AITKENHEAD) and if so, perhaps useful to see who informed of her death

It is, and the informant was her daughter Jenny Sneddon, 43 Arlington Street, Glasgow. So Janet/Jenny was still in Scotland, and unmarried, in 1940.

Mary, you would be much better to start a new thread rather than just tacking a message on to the tail of a thread about unrelated people.

Oh, and don't bother with ancestry for Scottish research, because they don't have the basic information. www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk is the site you need. There is no substitute for SP.
