Neil, have you tried looking on Scotlandspeople for a death for Janet please? If you have her maiden surname you can use that to search for her death and if the informant knew she had been married to Peter you can use Fraser to cross reference it. That way you would find out if she had married again after Peter died. |

Thankyou for your posts and advice. I have located all available records up until the girls left the orphans home in 1902 and 1904.This information is from the orphan's home records and does not state where they were employed "in service". I can't identify them in the 1911 Census. They may have married in the intervening period. |

Maggie with a more specific area of birth. Sorry doesn't help with your query though. Do you know whereabouts they were in service? |

Highly likely one or both of them were married by 1911, but like you say their names are fairly common so it's going to be difficult to find. How have you got back to them? |

I'm looking for information about Annie Fraser b. 12 Jul 1884, Glasgow and her sister Maggie Fraser b. 29 August 1887 in Kames. The girls father Master Mariner Peter Fraser died 7 Jan 1891 in Glasgow and their mother Janet placed them in the Kilmalcolm Orphans home on 29 October 1894. Annie left the home and entered service in March 1902 and Maggie did likewise in June 1904. Can any one assist me with tracing the girls? |
