I have been told that my Grandad's sister EMMA WALKER b 1892 Aberdeen and her husband GEORGE OGG b 1895 Huntly left for America sometime after they married to be with his parent's (William Ogg and Mary Reid Innes) who also went to Americia around 1926 . Any information (dates /places)on these couples would be great thanks .
