It is possible to have a kid at 34/35 not impossible

You won't have too long to wait for 1911 Scottish census, which should resolve your queries.

There's no point looking for Elizabeth, with no firm info about birth year, and birthplace.

Guessing that she was born c1869 is not a good basis for a search.......that would have made her 34/35 when the son was born.

looks ike they wernt married n think shes was born around 1869 as i said in my original posting
tnks all

It would certainly seem that the parents were not married....so the chances of finding Elizabeth's heritage are slim. Can't look for her without knowing at least her year of birth

JAMES SUTHERLAND MARSHALL 1926 SCOTLAND Christine 3rd May 2010 2
LOOKIN FOR ANY INFO ON JAMES SUTHERLAND MARSHALL B...

Christine, have we been here before with William Sutherland Marshall, the name seems familiar.

There were 19 William Marshalls born in Scotland in 1904, 9 of them in Glasgow. If his parents weren't married and the father not present when the child was registered he may have been registered using his mother's surname.

Yes, Christine, the actual address from the birth cert.

And exact details of what it says about his parents, please

There is no birth registered in 1904 in Scotland for a William Sutherland Marshall born in 1904!

So presumably you don't have his birth certificate?

Christine, if there is no date and place of parents' marriage on William Sutherland Marshall's birth certificate, then it is most unlikely that his parents were married.

Does it say (in the first column of the certificate) that he was illegitimate please?

I dnt know if he was the first or if he was an only child and nothing on the Birth Cert abt any marriage As for other forenames I dnt know Very little is known abt this side of family
Do you mean an actual address where James was born ?

Was he the first child of the marriage?

I thought Scottish birth certs gave details of the marriage of the child's parents....................

Did either of the parents have second forenames?

Do you have the actual address, please

William Sutherland Marshall born April 04 1904 in Glasgow

OK...............

Now please tell us the name of the child on the birth cert..and his year and place of birth.

Thanks Rootgatherer

Flick She is my Great GrandMother on my Fathers side I got Both their names from my GrandFathers Birth Cert

So............how is she related to you?

Where did you get her name?

And that of the man you say she married?

No marriage showing on Scotlandspeople for James Marshall and Elizabeth Lockhart.

I dnt know her birth year just an estimate and have already looked on scotlands people
