Person:Janet Shearer (9)

Janet lived in Scotland, married and raised her family there. Very little is known of her descendents although one branch of the family emigrated to California and had been in contact. She appears on the 1881 census as Mrs A. Struthers with her daughter Janet, son William and grandson Andrew Struthers, age 13. It is assumed that Janet jr was Andrew's mother. Andrew's name appeared on her death certificate.
