Thank you Pam, this is most interesting that only 3 of their children were at home i had kind of hoped one or two more would have shown up there, however:
Margaret Anderson born 1870 - we thought she had married by now to a Alexander Robb Nicol.....the age for what you have given matches another sister named Mary McIntosh Anderson...it seems they wrote her first name down wrong :-)
Louisa Brown Anderson born 1866 - we think she married a David Greig by this time
Isabella Burgess Anderson born 1868 - we think she married a Andrew Hoggan by this time.
Jane Ross Anderson born 1871 - must have married by this time.
Lewis Anderson born 1873 - must have married by this time.
Mary McIntosh Anderson born 1876 - matches the date given for a Margaret M as above.
John Ross Anderson born 1877 - it looks like he was married by now
Eliza Ross Anderson born 1879 - shes there with her parents as stated.
William Murray Anderson born 1881 - seems he might have been married by now.
Andrew McKay Anderson born 1884 - must be off living elsewhere.
Charles Collie Anderson born 1886 - as stated is at home with his parents.
The search continues :-)
Thanks
Richard
