Thanks for the reply Maggie16. I noticed that John Gerrath thanked an Alex Anderson for helping with the genealogy so will send John an email - obviously not the same Alex but he could be a grandson. I'd send the case to a descendant if s/he want it. It would be nice to reunite it with the family.
I've become quite fascinated as I've investigated. I never expected such a wealth of information when I googled the name & place on the case!!

Hi SFA,
I'm not related to the Andersons that I know of but came across your posts tonight when I decided to google Alex Anderson, Pittentaggart, Tarland. This is the name I found on a tooled metal cigarette case that I bought from a garage sale in Alberta, Canada about 10 years ago. The date on it is 23rd Mar, 1914.
I Wonder if you (or anyone else) know if any of the Alex Andersons from your family came to Canada and perhaps owned this case?
