1871/1881 look-up please for Dundee/Forfar
« on: Monday 02 May 05 23:58 BST (UK) »
Can anyone please do a look-up for either 1871 or 1881 to find my g grandmother Elizabeth Stirling, born 1869 Dundee or Forfar.  She may have been the Illegitimate daughter of Jessie Stirling. 

Elizabeth married my g grandfather David Bowman 15/06//1894, Weavers Hall,  Lochee, Dundee. She was 25 when she married.

Thanks, Anne :(
