Just a thought Sandra...not sure if Andrew Jnr's mother was a Miller Steel. There is a family tree here with mother Janet showing as Janet Miller Steel http://person.ancestry.co.uk/tree/50594587/person/26426557788/facts

Have sent tree owner a message, but not sure it is the right couple. The census entry you posted for 1901 is different never mind that Andrew Jnr's age.

Jane Yompom 43


From that 1901 snip you posted, possibly wife/mother is a Jane Thomson. There is a marriage between a Jean Thomson and an Andrew Millar in 1879 in Holytown (fits well with area from censuses).

Think it is the marriage for a Jane/Jean Thomson to Andrew Miller in 1879.

The family in 1891:

Andrew Miller 36 van man b. Lanark, Dalserf
Jane Miller 35 b. Lanark, Newarthill
Alexand Miller 11
Thomas Miller 10
Sarah Miller 6
Robert Miller 3
Watter Snddon 21 boarder

Address: Scotts Stables, Bothwell
