Hi Elizabeth

Are you sure of the parents?

Ive found  them on the 1901 with mother Marg(aret):

West Helmsdale, Kildonan
RD 52 ED 2 Page 8

Marg McIntosh, 45, Crofter's wife
Alexina, 11
Adam, 9
Minnie, 5
John H, 3
Alice, 9 months
Mary McDonald, relative,  70, annuitant

all b. Kildonan


Alice's birth reg has her parents as John McDonald McIntosh, a journeyman cooper and Margaret m.s. McLeod. They married 28th Sept 1894, Kildonan,  according to the birth cert.

Have you checked the Scotland's People site for possible marriages of the children?  None in Sutherland but a number showing for other parts of Scotland 1906-1932.


Regards

Thank you Gadget,

I don't know where i got the Macintosh family from
this looks right for me
I scanned Scotland people for Alice in the 1901 census but only came up with a 70 year old woman from Aberdeen

Will try again

Nice morning for us today hope it's like this for the rest of the weekend

I'm in the 'Far North', Elizabeth, and it's raining  :(

I think the family must have moved away as there don't seem to be any marriages for them in Sutherland and too many hits without using a county!

Have you got any other info on the family that might help find them? - parents' deaths, etc.

Hi Gadget,
Got myself back into the family tree searching again  8)
I had entered in my tree that Roberta McKenzie was married to John McIntosh

Looks like I had it wrong  :'(

Also I had no marriage for this couple thanks for that

Thanks again

Elizabeth :)

Solved the problem
Roberta was johns first wife and she died after Adam was born then he remarried a Margaret

I had an entry in of their marriage some time ago and had a reply from a Maisie who is going to write to me she tells me Alice never married

Elizabeth

Sorry I don't know how to link it over from Sutherland thread
