Whose siblings were William and Ann? George's or Catherine's?

Edit: Oh, I see you meant children.
Also see there are previous threads! I'm gone.

Researching:
Great grandmother Dorothy Bean nee Abbott (1858-1908)

Reggie, the info you want is possibly on Terri's other threads.

Terri - please don't start new threads: continue on the old as it's all the same family.

Birth info for Scotland is only available on Scotland's people, which is not a subscription site

Assuming these two married, your best bet is to find the marriage on SP, and get credits so you can download the cert, which will name both sets of parents

As you haven't given any birth year clues, we can't even look for them on a census

I presume William and Ann were their CHILDREN?

Hello Terri - that's a 100 year timespan - can you narrow it down?

Have you tried Scotland's People?
