	I can't get back further than 1901 on my grandmother's family tree. All I have is this information from 1901 census(see below) I know that Richard is Isabella's son and that he has no birth certificate. I can't seem to find anything anywhere about anyone in the household. I'm not sure if the birthplaces are true for the Mellons. Can anyone help? thank you, Lucia

	Just had a quick look on scotsorigins*com but the closest William Prosser was born in Aberdeen in 1839
