LOL - not really interested in Ancestry - just happy there are no Royals back there.

That’s what you say, Queen Domino..,

Actually it's Lady Dom.

 

Come to think of it - it's also Lady Stawks. lol

 

We both have ' Scots Titles '.

Lady Dom? Ooooookay.

 

 

 

Spoiler
(Am I the only person who thinks that sounds just slightly like the professional name of a dominatrix?)

I found out on one line I am a 15th cousin or some such to Diana Spencer. I am not sure it will get me an invite to Buck palace though.😁

 

Much, much closer is a convict ancestor who was transported for his thieving ways in about 1845. I knew one of his daughters, she was my great grandmother. A convict is sort of Australian royalty.😁

 I am waiting for Scotlands People to release the 1921 census later this year.

 

I have not been able to find my grandfather on the 1901 nor the 1911 census.

 

He has a rather common Scottish name and I dont know which middle name he used..........(he had 3)

 

I dont know who brought him up...........(his parents passed)

That is so frustrating for you. I could not find my grandfather on the 1911 census at first. He wasn't with his mother, step father and family. Eventually located in a Home for waifs and fatherless boys.🤤

 

He was under his middle name (John). He was christened Leonard John but forever afterwards apparently known as John L.

It can be so hard if the names are a bit different or have been transcribed incorrectly.

 

Good luck with your search!

 

The problem is, if we can't find people on this 1921 census, there won't be another released till 2052. I hadn't realised that.
