Hi, Im hoping that someone may have access to 1901 census and be kind enough to do look ups for me.
I am looking for
Alexander Scott Dow, who would be approximately 21 year old. He may possibly be living at 14 Fords Lane, Dundee, possibly with parents George and Johan / Jean. Alexanders occupation may be railway engine stoker. keen to know who else lived with him.
Also, would like a look up for Barbara Rennie on 1901 census.
Barbara would be aged approx 20 years old. Would like to know her birth place and with whom she is living. In 1905 she was living at 22 Union Place, Dundee. Her parents, Andrew and Catherine were deceased by 1905, so hoping they might be alive in 1901, to find out their approx ages, and where they came from, also who else lived with them.
If they can be found on earlier census records also, that would be a big bonus.
Many thanks in advance

Ok, thanks laurina.
I am assuming Catherine IS widowed in 1901. This will help me narrow down her death a sometime between 1901 and 1905.
thanks again

There is a marriage for Andrew Rennie to Caterine Fotheringham - on IGI 30 SEP 1864 Dundee, Angus, Scotland
Catherine uses the middle initial F in the 1871 census - could this stand for Fotheringham?
