Hi Elizabeth, I wonder if you can lookup John Ferguson and his wife Elizabeth(neeSolomom) in Dundee maybe 1881census. I am sorry I don't have the date of their marriage. I just know their child Thomas was born in 1881. Also John Carney and his wife Mary (nee Kennedy) also 1881 census. I sorry I dont have the date of their marriage. I just know their daughter Mary was born in 1880. If you can't find them can you check the marriage of Mary Ferguson to John Dye 1914 in Dundee. I am sorry I don't have the date of their marriage. Would like to know their families. Betty

Thanks for your offer, Elizabeth. Could you please look for a marriage between: James GILCHRIST & Margaret MCDONALD sometime around 1900. They were probably in Lanarkshire, maybe Blantyre. I'd love to know their parents' names and the other details given. Cheers, Emma
