Smart Family Key Information Required

[JoeM]

Hi Folks,

I am looking for a key piece of information, that would help out tremendously.

William Smart (b. Monkston) and Ann Grant (b. Cullen) were married in November on November 24/1851.
Children were: Elizabith, Barbara, Ann, Helen, Donald, May Ann and Margaret.

I am trying to find out where they lived in 1890 and1891.
In addition who was living with or near them during the 1881 census and more importantly the 1891 census.

Through hours, days and months of research and with a great deal of help from others (many of you here) our journey through history has taken a dramatic turn.

I have built a Family binder and would like to present it to my mother on her birthday (July 9), this would help greatly in finishing it off.
Thanks

What part of the world are we talking?
Years and places of birth would help.
Also what censuses have you got them on,  - give refs.

1881 is free to search - have you looked for them? Assuming Britain

I guess I was to excited and truely may not have given enough information.

William b. December  9/1823 Monkston, Fife, Scotland
Ann b. 1834 Cullen, Banfshire, Scotland
Elizabeth b. 1852 Kettle Fife Scotland
Barbara b. Oct 25/18?? Kettle Fife Scotland
Ann b. September 11/1885 Little Orkie kettle Fife Scotland
Helen b. December 30/1859 Orkie Kettle Fife Scotland
Donald b. March 3 /1862 Orkie kettle Fife Scotland
Mary Ann Smart b. November 29/1864 Orkie Kettle Fife Scotland
Margaret b. December 31/1866

In September of 2009 we took a trip to Scotland and being new to family research we did not capture a lot of the detailed information (as to source material). Most of our initial research was done in the local library and documents.

Hi

Ann b. September 11/1885 Little Orkie kettle Fife Scotland

Is this a typing error - should birthplace be 1855 or 1865

[JoeM]

Not sure on one of the documents I found it showed 1885, but you could be absoluting right!!

1881 census for Falkland- address is just Lands End


William Smart 57 b Collessie Fifeshire road labourer
Ann G   47 b Cullen Banffshire
Mary A  16 b Kettle
Georgina 12 b Freuchie
Ann  10 Months granddaughter b Freuchie
Falkland ED 7 Page  18 Line 9

Ann was b 1834 so too old to have had a child in 1885

In addition who was living with or near them during the 1881 census and more importantly the 1891 census.

You would have to buy credits on Scotlands People and turn up the original image to find that info

[JoeM]

How do I go about buying credits and what is Scotlands People.
