Been sitting here for days trying to find a marriage for a James robb and a Georgina ?

They have children in the census in Scotland in 1891 who were

James
Andrew
Georgina
George

Have the death certificate of James but it just says mother Georgina robb
M.s allardyce

Father James john Joseph allardyce robb

So..... Very confused trying to find maiden name then marriage ............

The only place to find a marriage in Scotland is on Scotlands people.....which is a pay-to-view site.

It does not offer subscriptions....................

Do you have a birth registration for one of the children? If born in Scotland the birth registration will give the date and place of the parents marriage.

Right sorry at the beginning, we have a death certificate for my husbands grandfather... Can't find his birth certificate.....

It reads James,john Joseph allardyce Robb.

Name/surname of father Joseph Robb (deceased)
Name surname of mother Georgina Robb then m.s allardyce (deceased)

So I was trying to look for their marriage ......


Seems strange he had the allardyce in his name too! Was this her maiden surname?

Have looked for births in Scotland and Ireland !!!!


Am I making any sense! If not I'm gonna go to bed and forget it for a while!!!!!! :) :)

There is just one marriage on ScotlandsPeople for a Joseph Robb and a Georgina.
It is in Aberdeen in 1881.
If you buy a few credits and get the marriage certificate, you will also see their parents' details.
