Sorry first chance i have had to get back to the comp Bertha was Johns 1857 sibling.
i cant find ne thing about her i know she married a somerville thats about it. I was thinking that it was one of the other sisters but she went under Bertha instead of another first name. I know it wasnt Mary B Seaton, pretty sure she was born Stirling along with all the rest.
Cheers Annette

When was Bertha born, was she a child or a sibling of John Seaton?

Susan,
For the best results, you should start your own tread. Besides me there's not much chance that any other helpers will see your request!

BMD for Scotland can be looked up, and certficates can be ordered, through Scotlands People web site.

http://www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk/

It's pay to view, but well worth the money as Scottish records give lots more info than English ones.
