Hi Ellen

Matilda was the obvious one to look for in 1881 because of the name.

I searched for Matilda Anderson b 1846 +/- 5 years. The list shows none being born in Ireland.

Sorry

Ellen - I should have been clearer - can you tell us where the family were living in the records you've found :lol:

Me too Jean - she must be sittin' somewhere wi' the curtains shut.

Hi Ellen

Is there a clue at all in Alexander's occupation ?

If it just says labourer its no help at all but if it ties him to work which might take him away and have to leave the younger kids in somebody else's care :?:

It's another possible line of approach.
