Hello
Christina was my grandmother.  She died in a nursing home called Knowesouth near Jedburgh on 29.6.90.  Her elder son James Alexander (my father) died 26.12.94.
Hope this helps.
Are you related?
Mary

Mary,
          I believe that we are related.I think that your Christine Mary (Bruce) Russell was the daughter of Andrew Bruce(1881) & Agnes Hogg Kay(1882)
..Andrew Bruce (1881)was the son of Richard Bruce (1857)and Janet Redpath(1857)
My grandmother was the eldest female child of Richard Bruce and Janet Redpath.
She was Jane,born in 1879.Jane came to Canada and married.
I'm sure your Andrew,  born 1881 was her brother.
Andrew died May 12 1918 in Salonica Greece.

Hi

Glad to make contact...not sure how to do this though...only looked at this site for first time on Friday.  Email addresses? 
I would be interested to find out where/when Richard Bruce (1857) married and died.  Also any information about his father John Bruce (married Agnes Dickson 1850 is all I know).
Regards
Mary
