In 1901 census John is an apprentice joiner lodging at South Bank Cottage, High Street, Rattray; William is a ploughman (servant) at Moneydie Farm Bothy; Alexander is boarding at 26, Tayfarm Cottage, Caputh, Perthshire, he is an ag lab. There is also a Thomas Welsh stating at Westhill Farm Bothy, Crieff, Perthshire, he is a farm servant.  However, it states, that he was born in Fowlis Wester, Perthshire which is just down the road.  I can find no Thomas born in Scone.
