James Alexander Neilson b. 2 Feb 1838 in Blairgowrie
« on: Wednesday 24 February 10 12:56 GMT (UK) »
Hi 'RootsChatters'

I have James Alexander Neilson (Subject) in my tree - on my late father's side - and I believe he died before the 1841 Census was recorded.  His parents were Alexander 1811-1864 and Jannet (m.s. Lindsay) 1811-1862.

He had siblings:
Anna Milne Neilson 1839-1919
James Neilson 1840-1886  (Who was my Great Grandad)
Robert McDonald Neilson 1843-1899
Margaret Dixon Neilson 1845-1874
Jessie Lindsay Neilson 1851-1902


Anyone able to help with a death date?

Is there a Perth Family History Society pre-1855 Deaths record?  If 'Yes' can anyone with a copy do a quick search for me please?

Regards

Aye mair questions than answers in a world where the past was a different place - that cannae be revisited!

Family surnames being researched ...
Crawford, Neilson, Lindsay, Reekie, Davidson
Drummond, Laing, Pearson, Tulloch ... will do for starters but there's a whole lot more!
