Since this post, I have managed to trace most of the descendents of Jane Ann Rae and Maria Alice Rae that I was looking for. However one puzzle remains namely where and when did Maria Alice Rae die.
I know that she married a James Chapman Mennie in Aberdeen in 1921 when she was 46, but unfortunately he died within 3 years of the marriage leaving Maria Alice as a widow for a second time. What happened to her after that is a mystery.
Can anyone help me?
