Hi Biz
Have you tried looking for her birth on Scotlands People? Or have you done this and encountered problems? Where did you find the year of 1876?
There certianly seems to be a birth for that name in that year on SP.

Have you found her on any census? I would think the 1881 would be a good one to try first if you have not already.

Have you a marriage for her? (if she married..)

Just trying to establish where you ave already looked and how you came upon the info you already have.

Best wishes
Lesley

Have you found the family in any of the census years?

What is Robert's occupation on the birth entry?

To search for a marriage or a death you will have to invest in some credits and search www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk
