Hi everyone,

scrape everything, when I ordered Death record it confirmed that my William was born 28th November 1889 Wigtownshire, I have been updating my tree and talking to relatives to find out after more research that my William has been living under false identity, in fact the real William moved to Canada, so goodness knows what is going on :-(

Many thanks Xx

So the 1889 birth cert matches the 1891 Scottish I posted on parents

But it does not still match the marriage cert

Do you have the death cert ?

Sorry Glitter the Birth information is from a viewing Scotlandpeople, it does match up with the death certificate though same town and birth date given.... now I know why I have no Address when he was born grrrrrr, got confused as the Scotland files gives us more information that our birth files Xx

What age does he give on his marriage cert ?

maryfill74

maryfill74 Report 6 Nov 2012 13:45

Reggie, witness was Ruth Mary Maddocks Sister Elsie Maddocks and her husband to be Water Robinson also Williams wife name is wrong too....... really her Birth name was Mary Ruth Maddocks Xx

Another problem

If that service record is the right person, and it is a big if, then his age does not match that 1889 birth cert

yes I have then all in front of me, on his death certificate: born 28th Novenber 1889 mochrum Wigtownshire, on his marriage it does say Father James Hawthorn (deceased)

You are right........ may be some skeletons in the cupboard, it appears William lost contact with his family, but defiantly the same family Xx

It's rather a leap to insert a second forename.............when there isn't one on the marriage record

Marriages Jun 1923 (>99%)

Hawthorn William Maddocks Birkenhead 8a 1111
Maddocks Ruth Hawthorn Birkenhead 8a 1111

Who witnessed the marriage?

How do you relate to this couple, who produced one daughter?
