Thanks Lodger. Your plot entries should add significant value. I feel like this may be my Agnes. I suspect the rest at D375 are her siblings. I was excited to see John at 17 months (I definitely would have missed this).

Rosie17, the passenger lists were awesome. It looks like Isabella didn't come back in 1904, but I have her married to a Joseph Paul, which fits Thomas' 1911 trip (Here I think Andrew is his brother born in 1875).

Never trust anything you find online (especially submitted trees and transcriptions on Ancestry, MyHeritage, FindMyPast and other commercial web sites) unless it's an image of an original document - and even then be wary because errors can and do occur.

Hi no Isabella did not come back with the family in 1904 still looking for her returning to UK before her marriage to Joseph Paul ..Yes Thomas and Andrew are brothers a possible record for Andrew returning back to Scotland in 1913 ..Not seeing Thomas or his wife in USA either could have came back or went to Canada ...You should be able to connect to www.scotlandspeople.gov.UK

anne_p, wow that was interesting. Being a big fan of marriage dates and middle names I got quite a bit there. It is interesting that you came up with 'Nancy' vice 'Agnes' for my GG-grandmother. I liked the references and the links.  I would guess that she might have been 'Agnes Nancy Logan' or 'Nancy Agnes Logan.' I suppose that John might have been married twice also.

"Nancy" is  often/usually a variant of Agnes.
It can also be a variant of Ann

Yes Rosie, most people that I know named Nancy were actually  Agnes.

My Aunt/Godmother was also known as Nancy, so I also assumed her birth name was Agnes.
I discovered that I was named for her and her birth name was......Anne!
