Hi,
Marriage certificate William was 25 and his father's name was William no second names to either.
William jnr was a chauffer,
Kindest Regards & thanks, Cameron

Have we found William Reynolds in 1911 (or 1901)?
Are you going to get that marriage certificate, for his age and Father's name?
Thanks

I have sent you a private message Cameron because the two people could easily still be alive. Click on messages at the top of the page.

Cameron, I had a quick look on Scotlandspeople and I don't see him there but didn't try without his middle name.

Sorry I am a bit "slow" on this! My sincere thanks to all so far who have helped me on these names of Alexander Crichton and William Reynolds. Not sure what happened to Alice's mother nee Dixon as she seems to have vanished in 1901. Yes I think that Alexander may have died either at sea or went back up to Scotland?
Good lead re sonbeing born to Alice & William, again thank you all so much. Good "ol" Ann of G G!!
