10 Canon Street Edinburgh

age noted as 74
father James McLean housepainter
ded
mother Margaret McLean m/s Sutherland
dec
death was reg by William Swan son Cumberland St Edinburgh

Thanks very much for your help, this has saved me a HUGE headache, it now seems that for whatever reason on the Marriage Cert, Margaret McLean may of been the name of her Step Mother and m.s Sutherland referring to the surname of her deceased mother.

Also looks like her father James did re-marry to a Margaret Blyth, in 1867 in Edinburgh and had a further 3 children.

Again thanks one in a million for the help involved.

So is my 1901 Census the wrong one?

Possible death:

Margaret McLean / Swan
1925
County: Midlothian
District: St Andrew

Birth year: 1850 ( +/- 5yrs)

I would have expected her married c1875 if born then .What's her age in Marriage Certificate?

The post by June is the Census record that I was referring too, as when Margaret McLean married John Swan they were living at the same addr in Edinburgh.
Had another look at the Marriage Cert and it does add up, so would be same people. John was 31 & Margaret 36 when married. As in the Census in 1881 John was 25 and Margaret 31.
It also looks like where Margaret is somewhat of a pain in the haystack, if I can find her death cert then I maybe find her real mother.
Margarets job in her marriage cert is given what seems to be a Mantlemaker and Johns as a Wood Turner.
Haven't yet found a marriage for James McLean + Margaret Sutherland, but looking at soundex.

Have you got a Marriage on Scotlandspeople for JAMES McCLEAN and MARGARET SUTHERLAND?

What was Margaret's job in the Marriage details ?

Are both parents living in 1885 when marriage took place?What was fathers job?

REGISTRATION IN SCOTLAND NEVER CAME IN TILL 1855 .YOU MEAN PARISH RECORDS,BUT SHE MIGHT NOT HAVE BEEN BAPTISED?
