Hi Sanct,

I have checked the 1911 census and have found Catherine and her husband had moved to Paisley, Renfrewshire (which fits with recent discoveries) They now have three children, James, Peter and William which is also parallel to my knowledge of the Hamilton side of things. It looks like they were still working on farms as William is noted as a Ploughman.

Thanks again
Terri

Hello Lindsay,

I am relatively new to researching my family tree and googled Jellyhill Cottage as my great grandmother lived there at the time she married in 1907.

I think she was born there too but can't be certain at the moment.
Can you check your census records for Catherine McLean Braid, daughter of Peter Braid, farm servant and Jane Braid (nee Tait).

She married William Hamilton from Whittagreen, Newarthill, who was also a farm servant.

Catherine was born about 1887 and William was born 4 Apr 1886.

William migrated to Western Australia in 1913 and wasn't joined by Catherine until after WWI. They had 5 children, 4 of which came to Australia with them in 1921. One child died during the war years.

I would very much appreciate any information you can provide. In return, if you ever need anything researched in Western Australia, I would gladly help as much as I could.

Kind Regards
Terri Usher
