Hi
I am looking for any siblings or half siblings for a Margaret Henderson Strachan born 1882 in 7 Gaul Street, Perth, Scotland, her father I believe was a William Strachan born abt 1842 in Perth, his wife was a Frances Stewart born abt 1844 Crieth, Perthshire, she I believe was married before William to a Donald McArthur, Frances may have had children in between Donald and William.
Margaret was my Grandmother she died in 1928 in Twickenham, Middlesex she was married to a William Littlewood.
I also think some of Margaret`s family moved to Middlesex.
Hope somebody may be able to help.
Chris
