Hi Wildgoose

Have you tried looking for her under Elspeth or Elizabeth. These names were often interchangeable with Euphemia. Euphie/Euffie was also used as a diminutive in my family.

Thanks for that.  I'll look also thought she may appear under her maiden name if a widow.

Dear Gadget,

Still no joy with different surnames...this is a very akward brickwall.  Also tried at last known location - ANGUS.

Hi Dave

I'll have a go at them later on today. It's a puzzle - must be somewhere.

DO NOT GIVE UP!

She will be there, hopefully with sp.James MARTIN,  but it could be a mispelt name or wrong age or combination of both.  I thought she may well have reverted to her maiden name of STEEDMAN which has a variety of spellings.  That said I also have come across MARTIN spelt MARTINE.

Many thanks

Dave
ps my gran was a WILDGOOSE

I refuse to comment on Wildgoose  :D

I've been looking on SP, Freecen and Ancestry for variations on these names but can't find anything remotely like them.

I just don't understand  ??? Euphemia, Euphie, Euffie, Effies, Elspeth, etc. must be there ...................

Thanks for the help.  The only "clue" I have is that she was born in KINROSS.  I have found this more help then her name or age.  Perhaps she went back home?

Dave ;)
