Sarah Lizars Mickel b 1845 Linlithgow West Lothian
« on: Monday 28 October 13 14:08 GMT (UK) »
Trying to find Sarah on 1881 and 1891 census.

Sarah married in 1868 a John Dunn they had two daughters both names Agatha after her mother both children died quite young.They also had a son Thomas born 1872 .
In 1871 she is living with John in Gardeners Cresc. Edinburgh he is a grocer .
After that they disappear but she then turns up  in 1901 census as a visitor in Linlithgow also living in the house is Francis Ord Mickel a boarder who I believe is her brother .

Thanks
Midlad

Hi Midlad,

Are Sarah's husband John and her son Thomas with her on the 1901 when she shows up as a visitor at Linlithgow? Also who is she visiting? Is it another relative? And lastly(sorry for all the questions ;D ) do you have Sarah's death certificate,does she die in Scotland?
Just wondering if the couple emigrated and Sarah came home on a visit.

Looby  :)

Hi looby,
             No neither John or Thomas are with her .
I think the James L.Mickel is her brother and his lodger Francis is definitely her brother.

Sorry haven't been able to find a death cert for her.
Thanks.

Hello Midlad,

Had a look on ancestry and Francis Ord Mickel seems to have crossed the Atlantic a few times(perhaps you know this already), the last I could find was 1923.

Sorry Midlad, noticed a typo, read 1928 for 1923, with his wife Grace.

Sarah's husband John disappears from the Post Office Directories in 1880. They had moved to 8 Morrison Street with the shop at 152 Rose Street.

Hi,
     Thank you all for your help I have just no idea at all what has happened to to them.

Tried SP for John's death but nothing that could be him .

I did have Francis going back and forward to America I wonder if Sarah and John went there

to.

Thanks again

They moved to South Africa to set up a business there.

I have photos of them (and the children) taken in Cape Town, South Africa if you like.
