The Common Room / Old Age Pensioner
« on: Sunday 10 March 19 20:13 GMT (UK) »
On the 1911 census my ancestor James Smith is described as an 'old age pensioner'
Am I correct in assuming that this was a retirement pension from a former employer?
He was never in the army.

Angus (Forfarshire) / Duke and Tate in Montrose
« on: Tuesday 11 December 18 18:15 GMT (UK) »
Help needed!
John DUKE married Elizabeth TATE (TAIT) 16th Jan 1785 in Montrose. They had 6 children all born and baptised in Montrose. John and Elizabeth possibly born 1760ish. But I cannot find births or deaths for either of them.
In a mini bio of son James, John is described as a merchant of Montrose and Elizabeth as the daughter of Thomas TAIT esquire of Montrose.

Ancestral Family Tree DNA Testing / How Is This Possible?
« on: Sunday 25 November 18 22:20 GMT (UK) »
My granddaughter has a match on ancestry to David 40 cm over 2 segments.
Her full sibling is 12 cm over one segment. I am fine with that - but
Their mother and aunt share 30 cm and 20 cm respectively with David.
How can granddaughter have a bigger match than her mother to him?
