I'm trying to trace my Finlayson family tree. All the information I have is that my grandmother, Martha Ellen( or Nellie) Finlayson born in Shropshire circa 1892 was the daughter of Tom James Finlayson born 1869 also in Shropshire. He had four siblings William (b1872), Annie (b1874), Aleck(b1883) and John (b1875). Their father, Alexander was born in Auchtermuchty and married Elizabeth. Aleck later became a headmaster of a school in the Black Isle.
Any help much appreciated
