Dolly could well be a nickname.

Have a look at births in the area on freebmd You can now use the GRO site to find the mother’s maiden name. The 1911 census will tell you how many children Jane had if she was alive then. Although she could just about had more after 1911.

Look for births on the GRO site, using ONLY the surnames

Assuming this is England/Wales, of course. You haven’t mentioned location, which is vital

Presumably, you’ve checked 1901 and 1911 censuses?

So I've hit a brick wall.

My gg grandmother Jane Mckenzie 1869 married Charles Newlands 1868 on 26/07/1889.

Up until today I thought they only had 3 children.
William Mckenzie Newlands 1890-1964 born Elgin, Moray, Scotland.
Jane Newlands 1893 - 1973 born Glasgow, Scotland.
Christina Dicky Newlands 1896 - 1985 born Edinburgh, Scotland.

I have asked relatives about a couple of photos I have of Dolly. I have been told Dolly is another sibling. I also have a photo of Dolly with young lady called Iris which we think is her daughter. In the photos Dolly does look younger than Jane and Christina.

I can't seem to find any records for Dolly, so hoping you lovely people can help me out again!

Thank you in advance.
Meg
