She was married to a Douglas McLeman in 1900.
They had the following children:
Janet Mcleman 1902 - ?
Katie Mcleman 1904 – 1984
Margaret Mcleman 1907 – 1986
Lewis Alexander Mcleman 1908 – 1944
Sarah Mcleman 1911 – 1954
Isabella Mcleman 1913 – 1996
Georgina McLeman 1915 –?

I am tring to trace my ancestors further back.
I understand that her family are linked to the Brodies of Brodie Castle somewhere.

Dear Just Looking,
Thank you so much for the information you have kindly posted for both Sarah Brodie and Donald McLeman.
I have only recently begun to research my family tree and all information provided is most helpful.
Thank you for taking the time to respond.
Kind regards

Hi Sarah
The site I find most useful is The Government site www. Scotlandspeople.gov.uk. They have all the offical records and it does not cost much. You can also down load the old records if you want.
regards
