hi can anyone please look up an elizabeth ann brown born 1875 her fathers name was james brown his occupation was a collier thanks clare

Any idea where in Scotland?? Merry

hi merry sorry i dont

There's 150 Elizabeth Browns to look at!! Merry

hi merry does it help cause her name was elizabeth ann not just elizabeth clare

Trouble is, on the census they have Elizabeth Betsy Betty Lizzie and only some bother with a middle name or middle initial etc etc It might be worth finding out how many birth registrations there are at the right time and where, as the birth reg will hopefully have her full name. (from Scotlands People?) Then if you have a list of places, I can look at all the Elizabeths showing as born in those places.......?? Merry

ok thanks merry clare
