I am trying to link up with people named Brotherwood, Hammond or Pimm from Tunbridge and Plaistow and the Pimms from Charlton areas. I have researched for many years and have an enormous amount of information that I would be pleased to share. I look forward to sharing this information on the above surnames.

Hi Paulie, I am trying to find a marriage record of my Great Grandmother, she left Scotland about 1911 and settled in Fernie, British Columbia, her married name was Margaret (Maggie) Murray, born 1870, husband of John Murray. John passed away in 1922. Some time between then and 1935 she married someone with the name Brotherwood, the only Brotherwood that I can find that fits is a George John Brotherwood, born 1859, married to an Ester, (not to be confused with a younger couple the wife being Esther who was american) .
George's wife Ester died around 1932 or 1933, leaving him a widow. They lived in the Bow River area, Alberta, Canada. I cannot find any information to confirm my theory, and George is buried in the same plot as his first wife. I found a border crossing from Canada into Montana for my G Grandmother, as she is listed as a widow, her surname is Brotherwood. I still cannot find any death record of her. I really need to confirm I have found the correct Brotherwood.

any help would be greatly appreciated.

Kind Regards,

Marion Murray

The post to which you responded is over 6 years old.............and is Paulie's only contribution to these boards.

She is unlikely to be looking now for a response.

And her relations came from southern England..not from Scotland

If you want help with your research....start a thread of your own, and GR members will do their best
