Hi CC,

When did you last see them on a census?

Where were they living on last census?

If both died after 1855 this should give you their parents names providing the informant knew those details?

If they died prior to 1855 there may be no record?

This one may be related as the figures don't add up unless the index has an error for age?

BAXTER HELEN
75
1869
379/ 12
Meigle

I couldn't find a Robert on statutory records in Meigle.

I haven't searched further as it's best to know when & where, last sighted.
