Find Ancestors

I am stuck!!! Trying to find more info on my Grandad (Douglas Lister Robertson) born approx 1919, died approx 1983. He died in Torremolinos, Malaga, Spain - so I am struggling to comfirm dates, and to get any links to him

Had two son's (my dad) John Charles Robertson (8/5/1942), uncle (Brian Lister Robertson) 1939 approx - both born in England, and both alive!!

My Nan (Robertson), died when my dad was young (about 14 I think?), so again difficult to find info

Would really appreciate any help and time anyone can spare - really stuck now!!!!

Thanks loads

Sue

where was Douglas born

his death will probably be on Consular records on Find My Past website

was he buried in Spain

Becuase my uncle died in Spain got cremated there but my aunt brought him back home and there id a death record in England for him

Hi Shirley

Thank you for that, Douglas was born in England - i think? but may have been Scotland!!!!

Is 'Find my Past' a freebie?

Thanks for your time, much appreciated

Sue

Hi Wendy

I think he may have been, not 100% sure I was young at time, and don't really remember! Sorry!!! and have since lost touch with my dad.

Thanks

Sue

Suzanne ,No sorry Find My Past is a pay to view site, you have to buy units to view the search results.

Douglas born where in England ,any idea ??

Nerine

Not sure on nan's name - sorry- no info, other than I suppose through marriage to my grandad - which I presume would have been late 1920's, 1930's and linked with births of my dad and my uncle?

Got absolutely no info on nan!!!!

Thank you loads

Sue

Shirley

Douglas born around Middlesex area of London, or West Scotland? not 100% certain - as there is a link with Scotland (he had a cousin or sister up there when I was little - and a family home somewhere on west coast) - I'm sorry, I know it is very vague, but I no longer have contact with my dad or that side of the family.

Thank you for your time

Sue

Found both births and your dad was actually 1943!! mmn Bell
one born Marylebone reg district and the other Brentford.wont post anything more as both still alive . So would you like me to see if can find the marriage? that cert will give their ages & Dads names.
Cant help for a birth tho if Douglas was born in Scotland

Do you think that this is your Dad and his brother
John C Robertson, June quarter of 1943, Brentford
Brian L Robertson 1939, Marylebone
Both have their mother's maiden name as Bell
