reggie daughter born 1837 jane rogers in poole dorset so i see what your saying its pre 1837 they were in sunderland in 1850, thanks for making me think lol. lorraine x

WHEN was the daughter born? And what was her name? When were they in Sunderland? We really do need a time-scale............... Reg

Scotland is great once you get going, their certificates give much more information than the English ones, especially death certs.

thanks willow this is the first scotland research ive had x lorraine x

hi reggie on the birth certificete of there daughter born poole dorset lol, they ended up in sunderland x lorraine x

If you had a bit more to go on, I could look on Scotlandspeople I still have some live credits.

I've looked at Scotland 1841.....nothing on there which fits the criteria. When did they die? No point in looking for them after that................. Reg

thanks willow hi kate they didnt die in scotland and it just says scotland, there is a possibility it was aberdeen by word of mouth. thanks for advice xxlorraine xx

Where did you find out Margaret's surname? No sign of the marriage on the IGI Reg

Lorraine, did either or both of them die in Scotland? I am guessing not, but if they did (after 1855) then you will be able to get their death cert on Scotland's People and it will tell you the names of their parents. Assuming they didn't die in Scotland, then the first thing you will need to do is find their marriage. I would try on FamilySearch first if I were you, because it is free. If you don't find it on there, then try on Scotland's People. If you still don't find it, then with such common names, it is going to be tricky. Have you found them on all the censuses? And do the censuses just say 'Scotland' for birthplace? Websites: www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk www.familysearch.org Kate.

Have you tried Scotlandspeople?
