I will have to check into that January 12, 1919 date for Mary McDonald.
The 1911 for James and Mary are for James Sabiston and Mary McDonald the daughter of John and Mary McDonald.

I looked at the 1911, and saw a Mary "Ann"  of that age ....so recheck the census data before ordering that later one, I think!  J.J.

a Mary Ann , elsewhere in St.Andrews...so might be the one in 1919 vitals...

Just looked at above posting....that snowfall actually all melted, but we'd had lots since..... and lo & behold we just got a huge dump of snow 2 days ago...Now it's raining - crazy weather!

Try this for your avatar size...if it suits your wishes...
There used to be a practice posting, but it appears to be locked...so will try to show you how it looks right on the site...why not?


let me know if you want it a bit more sepiad....might look better with more browns & yellows in it...
