Hi, I am researching the Bruce family for a friend. I have found them in the 1901 census in the the Parish of Lonmay,Aberdeenshire Scotland but that is all I have on the family.
does anyone know anything else about this family.

Everything you want to know is available at www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk at modest cost.
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 have looked on Scotlands people, Ancestry and family search and I cant find any of the children's births on there. Is there anywhere else I can look.

1 match showing already for James Bruce born 1897 on Scotlands People if you put in the county Aberdeen then the district St Fergus ...You can also do a birth range from 1895 -1905 which should give you more births
Rosie

Try district for Lonmay also
