Post by: calcon on Saturday 06 April 13 20:50 BST (UK)
Looking for any inforamtion on the above , I believe she emigrated to australia.

She was born circa 1925 in lumphinnans in fife , and was one of many children

She married in 1949 in bellshill. (Aird is her 2nd Marriage) Her first was to a man named Rankin

I have recently started looking into my family tree , and i believe she is a great aunt

Any information is much appreciated

thanks muss

Parentage first names are correct, heres hoping she had family as i belive her to be born in 1926 therefore she would have only been 41

Good morning Fiona

I hope you are well. Can you let me know where you fit into the family tree I am happy to add you as I am sure it is not entirely as up date, if you are okay with that

We would be on the same level in the tree

I am on Facebook if you would like to chat more

Thanks Fran x
