Thanks Helen,

Sometimes you just have to say it like it is although it was obviously tongue in cheek with no malice intended towards our non Scottish cousins!

Hi Pauline,

Just a wee note from us Scots in this insignificant little conglomeration of hills, mountains and haggis where everyone knows his neighbour, kilts are all the rage and cousins six times removed just live up the road.

Scotland's People 1920 to 1940 births throws up a mere 239 Janet Stewarts and 222 Jessie Stewarts right across our tiny collection of hamlets so you will have to pinpoint some small area north of Hadrian's Wall along with a date..

"See you Jimmy" is waiting at the wall with the semaphore flags to pass the message north of the border.

Ochh aye the noo,

Hello Pauline

Do you know what part of Scotland? I have Stewarts from Ross Shire in my family tree, but I know Jessie Stewart is a very common name in Scotland. Jessie and Janet seem to be interchangeable, so your mother in law's birth may have been registered as Janet Stewart.
