I now have my parents marriage cert and it states that mothers father Robert Macleod was , Major 1st Seaforth Highlanders and was deceased when they married in 1929, at least I know it was 1st Seaforth Highlanders, maybe that will help in the quest for my roots

How long you got and do you really need a headache?
I will post you the file I have on my shelf if you like LK,it hasnt got much in it I am afraid.
I really think this one will have to wait for the 1911 of Scotland to come out and then we pray we find her with a cousin called Ishbel and aunt Kate.

There are several Malcolms in that regiment at the time. This is the oldest and highest ranked in 1911. Looking at the original in the box that says If absent on census night write Absent and for those in the United Kingdom specify wether in England Scotland Wales or Ireland it says


Absent Scotland. Scotland is crossed out in red and on board HM(?) Rewa England

Thank you Lady Kira, sadly I do not have 1911 census so I cannot persue the Malcolm Macleod thread, I wonder if he had siblings?
