Hi. I am trying to find information on a Cathcart family in Scotland. My gg-grandmother,
Emma Sanders from England, worked as a domestic servant for the family in the 1870s. They
apparently owned a brewery or a distillery, or something of that nature and were very well
off, perhaps members of the aristocracy. There may have been an Alexander Cathcart in the
family.
Emma became pregnant by a member of the family and returned to her own family in England.
She had a son named Alexander Cathcart Sanders - the Cathcart family apparently knew of
him, as they provided for his education.
If anyone has ANY info. at all, I would really appreciate it. Any ideas on how to locate
this family would be appreciated greatly as well.
