Keith....I am new to this site & you may have a personal reply from already.

There is no Russell St in St Vigeans....it is a one street village.
However there is a Russell St in Arbroath. Is this the one you are looking for? If so I can help as I live in the area. However Russell St was redeveloped a little while ago but the building may still be there. Let me know

Hi:

If you are going pic taking in Arbroath, could you check out 50 Helens Street - hm maybe it is not there.  Census says 50 Helen St. St. Vigeans, Fofar(Angus) - 1881 census data.  I hv a pic of St. Vigeans Church - found on line.  Thx

THe Russell St must be Arbroath in that case althoough the census staes St Vigeans.

Quite a bit of the town of Arbroath spilled over into the boundaries of the (originally separate) parish of St Vigeans. So Russell Street could easily be in both the town of Arbroath and the parish of St Vigeans, without being in the village of St Vigeans.

If you go to www.streetmap.co.uk and search for Russell Street you can see where it is.

Never trust anything you find online (especially submitted trees and transcriptions on Ancestry, MyHeritage, FindMyPast and other commercial web sites) unless it's an image of an original document - and even then be wary because errors can and do occur.

I will try to do both places tomorrow....sorry about the delay.
Helen St & Russell St have both been redeveloped and new houses built ! It will still give you an idea of what the area looks like now.
