I'm off out will look in later.

Alvie, i have been on Inverclyde, thank you for letting me know, and thank you so much for the Canadian help, I really appreciate it.

Margaret, I haven't a clue who he is but then again, my whole family seems to end up like that, haha. Why did they have to keep passing the same name to each generation (so confusing)

Thank you very much Margaret, I'll have to try and find out who he is, I appreciate all your help.

Marion, thank you very much, what a brilliant site.

Margaret, are all those children Dugald and Eliza's?
There are 3 Elizas and there's 20 years between the first and last child, (sorry for being a bit thick.)

Sandra, I would think yes, they are all Dugald & Eliza's because they all have Eliza's maiden name, although the last one has her name as Steppens. (Just an error?)
Not unusual back then to have children for 20 years.

Thank you Margaret.
I take it two of the Eliza's must've died as you wouldn't have 3 daughters called Eliza?
