Not found Matthew or his father Archibald in 1911.

WOW so India. Certainly could be him.

There was talk that Matthew is mentioned in Edinburgh Castle, although when we looked we saw nothing. My FIL was vague about his Uncle Matt but that Matt was his favourite. But that is about all I know.

I know Matthew & Morrison are both common names. Kinda hoping to find something on him.

Thank you CaroleW

SIDELINE:
I found Archibald on the 1911 ... a Railway Loco Work Labourer. My wife is devastated. She's been married to a Railwayman for 32 years 
This Census tied up a couple of things.

Hopefully Matthew will be found.

Think this could be the 1911 Matthew

Medal Roll Index Matthew Morrison - Private - 2nd Battalion Black Watch (Royal Highlanders) Service number 1546.

Theatre of War 12.10.1914 - no country shown

Medals Awarded - the British/Victory/14 star

Despite doing the family history I've never delved much in the Military stuff.

That does sound like Matthew (1911) Morrison.

I'm so sorry CaroleW ... I jave discoverd this old thread
