Find Ancestors

Hi I am trying to find some info on my grandmother Ellen Taylor. She was born in Scotland 1906 and came to Australia not sure in what year with her family and married Eric Spillane. I have info on Eric but am trying to trace back Ellen. If anyone could please help it would be much appreciated. Thanks

what else do you know about her Rachel? Do you know where in Scotland, her parents or siblings?

If you obtain credits for Scotlands People website, you will be able to see her with her family on the 1911 census...............unless they emigrated before it was taken.

The same site will provide you with info about her birth..............and you can download the actual cert

Credits cost GBP7 for 30

As the name is so common, you need as much info as possible.........did she name her father when she married?

I take it this is your Eric with wife, Ellen?
