Find Ancestors

Would like info of my gran's sisters and brother. They were Margaret, Johnny,Susan,Elizabeth, Flora. I know F;ora died in 1934.Any info on them would be great.

Thanks Mary :-) :-)

Location ? Born when ?

Have you found the family on 1911 census

Scotland ?

Then you need scotlandspeople which is not a subscription site

Emily born Blythswood, Glasgow, according to poster's GR tree, but I can't see her on 1901 census

I'm afraid we won't be able to find anything with the information you've given, Mary.

On ScotlandsPeople it's not possible to search such recent births by mother's maiden surname, and Murray is too common a name to search if it can't be narrowed down somehow.

Even if we knew their parents' names, that wouldn't help with such recent births.

There are no deaths for any Flora Murray in Scotland in 1934, so Flora must have married, or died somewhere else, or not in 1934.
175 Floras of all surnames died in Scotland in 1934.

A few trees on ancestry have Emily on them. This is one.

but Arthur's birth is recorded as


Arthur Murray
Birth abt 1875 in Scotland Partick, skye
Death


Partick is nowhere near Skye so don't know where that came from.

The only Arthur Murray born in Partick 1870-80, is this one in 1877 (two versions of his name):

1877 ERSKINE-MURRAY ARTHUR M PARTICK GLASGOW CITY/LANARK 646/02 1186

1877 MURRAY ARTHUR ERSKINE M PARTICK GLASGOW CITY/LANARK 646/02 1186

There were none born in Skye during that decade, per SP.

Even if Fora had married and she died in Scotland, her death would be index under all known surnames.

This is the man whose birth ArgyllGran found
