Hi Andy here, I have traced my Great Grandfather, Alexander Reid Born1883 from the 1891 census for Kirkmichael, Perthshire, from there Im stuck, He or none of his family appear on the 1851 sencus so I can only assume He lived outside that area prior to this time and moved some time after as they do not appear on the 1901 census, Aleander was married to Christina ? Born 1854 they had four children, Alexander Born 1883, Betsy Born 1887 James Born 1885, he was my Grand Father and Charles Born 1890. I have been told that after my Great Grandfather Died my Great Grandmother, Christina moved and obtained a house and took in lodgers and grew strawberrys! any of the above belong to another Tree I would love to hear from you or indeed if any one has any idea how I can take my search forward from Alexander, many thanks, Andy.
