The Old Family
and how we got here
As seen to the right, we don't have certainty about Alison's birth but she was probably the daughter of Walter Flockart and Alison Dunsire in Wemyss. She started working in the weaving industry in her old age as a widow. That's about all we know about her apart from the fact that she had at least eight children. The oldest is listed as Bell in the 1851 census. This is one of the shortened versions of Isabel.
