Title: Still - Banff & Aberdeen
Post by: Lofty27 on Thursday 03 November 05 22:59 GMT (UK)

I have a few children where a Great Aunt has put died young but have not been able to discover when. Looking for info on Alexander Still b. 31 May 1864 in Banff and his brother Robert Stil b.19 Oct 1851 in Banff.

Had two sisters who were spinsters but have also not discovered when they died either - Isabella Still b. 9 Apr 1854 and Ann (Annie) Still b.14 Feb 1856
