sorry ambly  computer on the blink.
as far as I know george was still with his parents in FRASERBURGH in 1901.at present we cant get the 1911 census. that would be a great help in finding out where he was  then. Of course there is always the thought that he went to Aberdeen to do his training and maybe he lodged somewhere. where exactly do you look to find the passenger lists for canada. Again I dont know where he went from. researching isnt easy , is it. but we do get in contact with a lot of people, dont we!  fingers crossed again

george was born 5/9/1885 crimmond aberdeenshire scotland. parents george murray and Isabella forsyth. had a brother charles. as I said ,last known he was apprentice printer in 1901 in fraserburgh scotland.
not knowing when he emigrated is a nuisance. this novice would appreciate any help in pointing me in the right direction. i am told there are thousands of murrays in canada. maybe I will strike lucky!!!

many thanks. I  too have come to the conclusion that they were not married.Checked with edinburgh register but could not find proof. My grandfather was charles murray, his wife Isabella . They were in there 40s when they took on Ian. Why! my mother was 19/20 then so again why take on a baby.Infortunately my grandmother died 3 years after the baby came to stay with them.It is bugging me as to what the connection was. Why move a baby from glasgow to peterhead! I dont suppose I will ever find out but I will go on trying somehow!!!
