There is a family tree on ancestry.com for this family. Although they are notorious for misinformation, this one does refer to the 1891 and 1901 censuses which say he was born in Shotts, Lanarkshire. But I couldn't find him on the IGI there, either. Must be terribly misspelled. Irene, in Michigan In a message dated 8/2/2010 6:39:07 P.M.
