I'm sorry.......was too focused on providing relevant details, just forgot to say what I would like help with  ::)
I would like help with -
My research shows that my great grandmother margaret ann algoe had 2 siblings, james and john.  I know about john, I found him on 1891 census living with my great grand parents in lanarkshire.

With regards to john all I've found is his baptism record.  I would like to find out more about him and if there were anymore siblings.

Margaret, james and johns mother was eliza Jane healy - I've been unable to find birth or baptism record for her. 
I did find one for her sister eleanor, born 1849 - would like more about her

This afternoon I discovered another sister, margaret, born 1826, married Joseph Kelso and emmigrated to Canada.

Due to the dates of the 3 sisters births, 1826, 1844 and 1849, I would assume there are more siblings - who are they?

As for the parents john healy and margaret Mitchell all I know is from griffiths and tithe records - where did they come from, when did they marry and when and where did they die?

Well I posted all the Algies etc on 1901 and you haven't even commented on whether you've even looked at them or not... or the Healys!!

I have looked at 1901 records but I don't know what to look for - information I have regarding family is from mid 1800's, but from studying the 1901/11 records nothing ties in.

The tree on family search is mine, it's imported it from ancestry :)
