Yes, I am having trouble with spelling. I have used scotlands people searching for Surname Varients, and trying different spellings. I may not be doing something right. I was unable to find another family name and I had searched the census on ancestry. It took someone on roots web to locate him for me using scotlands people to find the entry. There is a "Wedow" Cathcart in the 1941 census living with unknown names, but I can't see that as being her, but again leaves nothing to go on. Proves the spelling thou...LOL "WEDOW " Who would have thought something should be listed like that!
