Can anyone suggest a way to find out when a member of NOFU returned home from Scotland to Newfoundland after World War 2 ?

Thank you.

Lanarkshire / Govan 1881 Census...Help!
« on: Friday 11 February 11 15:37 GMT (UK)  »
I have been researching  this couple, John Christie (joiner) and Grace Stuart. They married in Govan in 1874 and Ancestry has Grace Christie, age 29, born Tomintoul , living at 47 Helen Street, Govan in 1881. This seems correct but why can't I find this family on the Scotlands People, 1881 census?

I am going round in circles ...can anyone help?

US Lookup Requests / Help needed finding Scot in NYC!
« on: Thursday 13 January 11 16:23 GMT (UK)  »
Alexandrina Stuart was born in Tomintoul, Banffshire, the daughter of Peter Stuart and his wife Janet (Jessie) Stuart. She married Thomas Dick in Dunoon in1883 but there is no sign of them in the 1891 census.

Then on Familysearch I found  the  marriage of Alexandrina Stuart Dick to Frank Carpenter Lang in Manhattan, 1896. I have been floundering about ever since and would really appreciate some help. I think this must be her as her name is not that common and her parents names are correct on NYC marriage.

Thank you.

Does anyone have any information on the three generations of Stuarts that "built Tomintoul"?

I know of William born 1858, his father was Peter Stuart and his grandfather, William.
