Renfrewshire / Re: Steel and Pettigrew of Paisley

Yes thanks, that's the family.  I now need to try and trace where they went to after 1901.  That's an interesting comment about the Channel Islands - didn't know that!

Hello Gallium - thanks for the prompt reply.  I don't know if the person is still living - but I will look up this URL as you suggest.

Not sure how to go about finding ancestors/family of Sylvia Margaret Jeffree of Guildford, England who in 1951 married Ian Herdman Taylor - maternal cousin.  Ian was born in Ardrossan, Scotland and was with the Royal Navy. Anyone suggest a way forward?
