Hi Alvin

I don't know whereabouts you are but the Scotland's People website is showing a relatively big D'Agrosa population with 26 deaths and 48 births between 1855 and 2006, and 8 marriages from 1855 to 1932. There are D'Agrosas on both the 1891 and 1901 censuses. They seem to have lived mostly in the south of Scotland.
