Hi Boomeranger,
I think you have posted in the wrong section. However, FS in the census records usually means female servant.
I am Australian, from all the lands I come (my ancestors, at least!)

Pine/Pyne, Dowdeswell, Kempster, Sando/Sandoe/Sandow, Nancarrow, Hounslow, Youatt, Richardson, Jarmyn, Oxlade, Coad, Kelsey, Crampton, Lindner, Pittaway, and too many others to name.
Devon, Dorset, Gloucs, Cornwall, Warwickshire, Bucks, Oxfordshire, Wilts, Germany, Sweden, and of course London, to name a few.

Click on the Forum tab across the top. Then scroll down until you find the section you want. A lot of boards have sub boards. In this case, you would have posted this in the general Scotland section.
It's never really a problem, as our friendly mods will move a post to it's right area.
