Hi Marian
My name is Frank Nicholson like yourself i am researching the Nicholson and Nichols line and like yourself have came to a stop trying to get records but i did find a lot of the Nichols line in Ireland maybe thats why you cant find there birth cert to make matters worse my ancestors changed the name from Nichols to Nicholson when they arrived in Scotland i do no that i have 2 Thomas Nichols in my tree the Nichols line came from England then Ireland then Scotland the furthest i go back is 1834 with Henry Nichols born someware in England so you can sea my problem hope this helps in you research.

regards Frank

Marian, better to click on Frank's name and send him a personal message. If he is still a member and GR have a current email address for him they will notify him. I shouldn't think he is still checking for a response after nine years.

Good luck.

If you require help with your own research, just add to this thread and with a bit of luck some of the helpers may point you in the right direction.
