Looking for MACPHERSON Family
« on: Wednesday 09 July 08 17:56 BST (UK) »
I AM LOOKING FOR anything about macpherson family moved from scotland between 1904 and 1910 as i have got them on a census form 1911 in canada

i am looking for death certificate on them

hi i am looking for peter mcpherson and his wife elizabeth mcpherson
peter was elizabeth's second husband as her first husband died her first husband was my great great grandfather.. so i am looking for anything at all about peter mcpherson and elizabeth mcpherson.and there two kids (peter mcpherson) and (agnes dickie wilson bruce mcpherson ) her husband peter was born 13/07/1877 they got married 04/12/1896 in scotland
now elizabeth changes her age all the time and her name the way you spell it so she was elizabeth mclintock brown mcpherson
and her maiden name is mclintock she married brown then married mcpherson
so elizabeth mclintock was born 11/11/1862
i have tried all of scotland and i cant get a death certificate for them so i think they might have moved to canada
so any help would be good

all of them where all born in scotland
so peter & elizabeths kids where born
peter 14/10/1897
agnes dwb 18/11/1900
elizabeth 02/06/1904/ died 16/09/1904

peters parents are peter mcpherson & ellen foote
elizabeths parents are william mcclinton & agnes bruce

i have got peter mcpherson jnr sign up papers in 1918 from canada
and i have a census from 1911 from canada
they moved from glasgow in scotland to canada in 1907
and that is all i have

Hi William

I have sent you an e-mail.  I'm sure that I have found them in Canada - esp. as Elizabeth's brother Andrew is with them. I have sent you the copy of the original entry courtesy of Ancestry from the 1911 census of Canada.

You'll want to post the whereabouts of the family if you require more information... the automated genealogy.com site is free to see 1911  transcriptions and images...

Here is the WW1 attestation for the highly ranked Peter Jr. for more proof...He is in Prince Albert Sask for signup 1917...a firefighter...
Says his father in in Keewatin Ontario

So they worked for one of the Mills owned by The Lake of the Woods Milling Company.... One may have been called  Five Roses Flour Mill

There are 2 stillborn deaths for Elizabeth's brother Andrew Bruce McLintock born Glasgow Scotland & Susan Cunningham 1926/1933 Port Arthur...Don't see a marriage for Agnes yet, and Peter was working in Saskatchewan so may have returned to Prince Albert after the war...  J.J.

right on the 1911 canada census elizabeth is down as born 1877 and age 33 the same as her husband but that is wrong. elizabeth was born 1862 so she would have been age 49 in 1911.. but her husband was born 1877 so he is okay. elizabeth changes her age all the time.
so i am looking for a death certificate for both of them... and a marraige certificate for there children and a death certificate for both children as well
so ages for them all
elizabeth mcpherson would have been age 100 on 1962
peter mcpherson would have been age 100 on 1977
peter mcpherson jnr would have been age 100 on 1996
agnes dickie wilson bruce mcpherson would have been age 100 on 2004
that is going with there real ages for all of them
