Hi Julie

I investigated your line and the other chidlren named but it just seemed the dates didnt quite add up and neither did the location. In the 1901 census Colin Colville was already 42 and christina was 35. My mother in laws mum wasnt born until 1917 by which time they both would have been 58 and 51 respectively which seems to old to be having chidlren still (no offense to anyone).

the colville that has been investigated the area seems to match perfectly to other fmaily members and the ages seem to make more sense too.

I do really thank you for the time and effort you took in trying to help me i jsut regret that it seems to be the wrong person.

Thank you again

Love

Samantha

Im looking for the marriage certificate of Christina Henderson and Colville Graham please peeps

They were married in 1902. ive no idea where other than in scotland.

anyone know?? and also would anyone else be able to find these twos birth certificates.

Colville Grahams parents were Ann graham and William graham, he was 26 in 1902 when he married so he would have been born around 1876. Also im guessing they were boron raised around fife area.

christina Henderson was only 19 when she married in 1902 so im guessing her birth year is approximately 1883. I believe she was also around the fife area too.

i know christinas parents names are on the certificate but i cant quite make them out. I think her dad was John henderson but any help in decifering these would be greatly appreciated too

thanks so much in advance

Sam
