Hi jean.

thank you for the offer, if you have time I really would appreciate anything you can find on Henry Stewart Moore b. 1859 in Glasgow, I have his birth certificate which shows him as illigitimate, his mother was Margaret Stewart and father Henry Moore, he is last on the 1891 scottish census living with his parents ( they married in Tradeston in 1869 ) . On the census he is Henry Moore.
On his birth certificate it shoes him as Henry Moore Stewart

Hi Jean,

Looking for information on my Great grandfather Robert Dawson born c1855 in Bathgate West Lothian, not to sure when he died, he might have died in Edinburgh, my Great grandmother Marion Dawson (nee Bryce) born c1857 Whitburn West Lothian. I do not know when they married, it must be before my grandfather was born c1877.

They had four children Francis Dawson (my grandfather) born c1877 Bathgate, John Dawson born c1887 bathgate, Robert Dawson born c1890 Bathgate, Christina Dawson born c1901 Edinburgh.

Could you look for marriage date for Robert & Marion also the birth dates for their children.

Jean can I ask a favour on your visit to Scotland this month, is there any possiblity you could look for my great grandfather x 3 name of :- John( Belshe or Belches?) Bird, born 1808 Perthshire, according to records on ancestry he was a Historical artist/Engraver, I have searched on Scotlands People and am unable to find anything regarding his birth, only his marriage=15/10/1838 to Elizabeth Stewart.
Also my great grandfather x 5 on my other side David Brown, I think born about 1771 Dunsyre, Ayrshire, unable to find anything for him at all, he married Janet Aitken 12/12/1802.

kind regards
Helen

Are you able to look at birth records 1927=1931? I am so annoyed as I have 27 credits on Scotlands People and they have expired!


Harold Ernest Gould married Kathleen Molloy (not in Scotland) 1927, he died April 1st 1931 in Glasgow last address 64 Spring Bank Street Glasgow (death cert says district of Hillhead)

I just need to know if they had any children before or just after he died.

Thank you for your kind offer.

Hi Jean,

Thanks for the offer. Could you please lookup a marriage:

Helen Thomson & John Neville (or Norman) 21 Jan 1859 Old Monkland or 31 December 1859 at Coatbridge.

I got the first info from their daughter Ann's birth cert 1868 Kilmadock, Perth. The second date comes from their daughter Marjory's birth cert 1870 Kilmadock.

The family started off as Nevilles then changed their name to Norman!!

Thanks in advance,

Gillian
