Hi Gary,

This one looks like one of yours. Could she be a contender for Sissy?

Sarah McCallum Sunclair, registered twice in 1906 in Glasgow. I am presuming like many of that era that one is her birth away from home, and the other is a transcription in her home district.

Also, how about Robert McCallum Sinclair, 1908, Glasgow?

All the best,

AndrewP

Hi Gary,

If the ones remaining cannot be narrowed down economically, then your best plan is to wait on the release of the 1911 census in early April. That should give you ages and birth places and make them more economic to find on SP.

All the best,
