Sorry misread your question, yes as far as I am aware Neil did not leave Scotland.

Hi

Yes I noticed that and as you say both brothers in 1901 but no Neil. I wonder if he was with them and just not transcibed as there are no images on Ancestry to check the originals. Unless he just wasn't counted that night :-\

I looked through all the males born Harris 5 years either side in Scotland census to see if I could see a name that may have been mistranscribed but I wasn't convinced.

I really appreciate all your help with this, maybe I will find him on the 1911 census when it comes out.  I have the images of 1901 -  census Norman is still at home in Harris with his mother and two sisters.  Murdo is living at Little Urchany which is near Cawdor, Nairnshire living with the farmer and his family but no sign of Neil.

Hi

Sorry I couldn't find him for you. If I get any bright ideas where else to look I will.

Once again many thanks for all your help.  Maybe he will turn up but maybe he has just slipped through the net.
