Hey Dave

Trying to find an Andrew with parents Alexander and Mary pre 1881... not succeding as yet...

Will see what I can find about Jane on the Census..

Good work my friend...

Karenlee

Added... just rechecked... on 1881 says father of Andrew is Andrew...???

Just logged on as I forgot to respond to this comment.
Andrew 68 from Ireland is described as g.father on the doc I read. 

So, the line would be
Henry b1885
Andrew bc 1859
Alexander b?  say, 1836ish
Andrew bc 1813

I'm away this time.

This is quite useful and informative...

The marriage of David CRAWFORD and Elizabeth BROWN, as on SP -

David CRAWFORD, Corporal in the 93rd Highlanders, at present in Aberdeen, was on the 4th day of May 1848 married at Aberdeen to Elizabeth BROWN, there, relict of the deceased William NEWLANDS, Ships Carpenter, in Aberdeen, by the Rev John Murray, Minister of the Free North Church Aberdeen.  Witnesses were John PROVAN Private in the 93rd Highlandersn and John KEITH, Seaman, both in Aberdeen

So Elizabeth was on her second marriage... BROWN being her maiden name, her first married name being NEWLANDS.

This might be Andrew MCALLISTER's parents....

1871 Census Scotland Lanarkshire Lesmahagow
ED9/Reg # 649/ Page 19
Bankend Works or Brockley

MCALLISTER
Alexander Head Marr 36 Miner born Ireland
Mary Wife Marr 36 born Ireland
Henry Son Unmarr 9 Scholar born Ireland
Mary Dau Unmarr 5 Scholar born Lesmahagow Lanarkshire

Not sure where Andrew got to though, will keep looking for him on this census.
