Hi all
I think we are getting a lot warmer with the US information. I can confirm that Archibald's parents are James (Brown) and Jane (Pott) and Margaret's parents are Mary Brown and John Sutherland not Joseph.

My mistake- Margaret Brown Morse's father is named as John Sutherland on her death cert. - second husband was Joseph.

Hi All
Thanks for your help with this query. Your response has been fantastic.
I have learned a valuable lesson from you today. It is if you can't find an ancestor, investigate the possibility that they may have emigrated.
Thanks again

It would appear  Jane, Margaret & Annie died in Massachusetts

Jane/jennie  died oct 1910
married Charles bogret
Margaret  died june 1903 married Edward Klein
Annie died Dec 1905

George born circa 1869 before Archibald. & Margaret married

Mary born Oct 1874

IGI / LDS - familysearch site can help as a index - but best to check out the official enters and use personally submitted enters as a guide

Hi Terianne
Thanks for that info.
Emigration to the US does not seem to have been a great decision by Archibald and his family. He died within a few years of their arrival. His children only lived until they were 19,22,22 and 37 and although Jane and Margaret got married, I can find no children.
