Laird/Moir

[cameronclan]

I am looking for anyone who may know alittle bit more about Elizabeth Moir Laird, born in Alloa, in 1861, Jul 29. She married a James Rhind Taylor in 1858 and had several children. My grandmother Janet Moir Rhind Taylor was one of her children. Born 1895, Jul 6.
I am lookind for descendants that may still live in the area.

Take care,
Stephanie

good afternoon stephanie,

big warm welcome to rootschat.

sometimes it may help others to identify your family if you have some details on the thread, i thought i would try and help by adding some census details, in the hope that others may recognise the names or help you get back a little further with your family.
