Title: Anderson Family Census, Doune, Perth
Post by: JLScott on Sunday 04 September 05 14:51 BST (UK)

Hi, Trying to find more information on my Great Grandmother.

Her maiden name was Margaret Anderson.

Born in Doune January 1, 1844, had a sister named Janet. I don't know her mother or fathers name yet. She ended up immigrating to Canada then the US.

Help would be appreciated

John

Thank You for your help Joe. I think you found them.

Do you have any internet sources that I could go to for more information?

Also, My great grandfather also is from Scotland and want to do research on him and his family.

Hi John:

I noticed a posting from some time ago relating to James Anderson, mason in 1851.

My ancestor William Anderson was born in Doune in 1846.

I have very little information on his father William Anderson.
I have tried to connect James Anderson to my family without success.

If you can provide me with information on James Anderson's parents and family I would appreciate the assistance.

Thanks,
Dave Anderson
