Welcome to the forum sonsteam.
Did your grandmother marry Alexander Mitchell in 1908? This is the index entry from ScotlandsPeople. DAIRUTIS MARY MITCHELL ALEXANDER 1908 644/1 215 215 Bridgeton Do you have a copy of this certificate (assuming this is your grandmother) From your opening post, did you mean she had been married before and her maiden name was Rawlicki? Do you know when or where she married the first time? I can't find any sign of her on the 1901 or 1891 Scottish census. What led you to believe she had arrived in Scotland by 1888?

Oh I've just seen a visitor message on your profile page which says:
Quote:
So, if she was only around 20 years of age when she married it's probably unlikely (but not impossible) that she had been previously married. When did she have the name Rawlicki? There's an Antanas Dairutis who married in Glasgow in 1910. I wondered if he could be connected?

All these Scottish Mitchell death registrations have mother's maiden name recorded as Dairutis. If they are Mary's children then that suggests her surname was Dairutis at birth.
Surname Forename Age at death Year.. Ref ......RD Name MITCHELL ALEXANDER 77 ..........1989 605/ 71 Glasgow, Martha St..... aka Alexander Morris MITCHELL THERESA ....73...........1990 590/ 55 Rutherglen..................aka Theresa Reaper MITCHELL MARY..........85...........1994 606/ 364 Glasgow, Martha St MITCHELL ANNIE.........68...........1996 610/ 630 Glasgow, Martha St MITCHELL ELIZABETH..67...........1999 609/ 347 Glasgow, Martha St MITCHELL VICTOR.......81...........2003 505/ 123 Dumbarton MITCHELL ANELLIA......97...........2015 590/ 868 Rutherglen................aka Anellia Rainey.

From googling I found a posting suggesting the family lived at 498 Baltic street Glasgow in the late 1890s.
I have found Alexander Mitchell as the Tennant/Occupier at that address on the valuation rolls in 1915, 1920, 1925 and 1930 (the last one available), but not in 1905 or before that (there is no 1910 roll available).

Oooh, this family appear on the 1881 Scottish Census return:
498 Baltic Street, Glasgow Hugh Mitchell head married aged 39 occ drawer and twister born Kilbarchan, Renfrewshire Margaret Mitchell wife married aged 36 born ditto Helen Mitchell daughter single aged 16 occ steam loom weaver born ditto James Mitchell son aged 6 born Glasgow, Lanarkshire Bella Mitchell daughter aged 3 born ditto In 1891 they were at 524 Baltic Street and had two further children, William 7 and Maggie 3. I was hoping they would have a son, Alexander, but no such luck! In 1901 they were at 462 Baltic Street. Of course Mitchell is a pretty common name, so the 1881 census could just be a red herring!

That's brilliant! I only have UK ancestry and I don't have that entry even though the arrival is in part of the UK!

I had some credits so I looked at the marriage. The maiden name of Mary Dairutis's mother was Rawlicki.
Both Alexander (age 22) coal miner, bachelor,and Mary (age 20), spinster, 'made their mark' on the certificate, which was witnessed by Michael Hughes. Residence was given as 164 Main St Bridgetown, Glasgow Alexander's parents were Justan Mitchell, farmer, deceased and Bonigna Mitchell, M.S. Nacaiezuwna (handwriting is very clear, so exactly as written) Mary's parents were Ignotus Dairutis, farmer and Ona Dairutis, m.S. Rawlicki. Witnesses were Michael Hughes, Joseph Poloskis (his mark), Mary Carponici (her mark) The marriage took place on 24 Oct 1908 at the Sacred Heart chapel, Glasgow, after publication (of Banns?) according to the forms of the Roman Catholic church. Likely Michael Hughes was the officiating minister. Marriage registered 28 Oct 1908 at Glasgow, W.H. Black regr. Possibly also located Mary working as a dairymaid in 1911. Can send images if an email address is PM'd to me

Given the oddity of Alexander's mother's maiden name, might she be related/connected to Mary's family?
