With the release of the 1921 census I thought I would have a look for my grandparents and great-grandparents.

With the research carried out so far I knew that out of four pairs of great-grandparents only three were together, and only one grandparent had been born.

I have found everyone apart from one great-grandparent and her four children, I can only assume that they were either living in Scotland, or they may have been mistranscribed.

But I did find her husband serving in the army as an “Artillery Clerk Master Gunner” at the Mawitins Command Headquarters, Vacoas Camp in Mauritius.

I doubt I’ll be able to find my last great-grandparent until the Scottish census is released which has been delayed until the latter half of 2022.
