Derrick I think I have found her, was her date of birth 1890 and she would have been about 21 when she left for New York in 1911? Thanks Shirley |

Sorry Shirley,on the blower, I have her born 1885 in Olrig, Thurso, Caithness and her sister was Catherine Ann born 1880 same location, both dying in Ohio, thanks for your help, Derek PS Catherine Ann married a David Black Mackenzie and although marrying in USA (1910), their first child was born in Caithness(1910) with same name as his father. Is that clear, I hope so! |
