	I think that Glasgow marriage looks a distinct possibility. Now, if we could find a birth for George to confirm his parents names that might prove further confirmation of the marriage.

	Wondering about this marriage Name: George Butlin Gender: Male Marriage Date: 6 Jun 1861 Marriage Place: Blythswood,Glasgow,Lanark,Scotland Spouse: Maria Johnston FHL Film Number: 6035516 If you buy credits for Scotlandspeople you will be able to view the actual entry. That will give you tha names of both parents including the mothers' maiden surnames.

	Odds are that the MMN was Johnston, in view of Malcolm's second name

Member Since: January 2006 Posts: 15 Send Message	That's the problems I am having, some say Marie, others say Maud and I can find no death record yet. I have matched a tree with a George Butlin born 1838 and sent a message to see if he is the same man, hopefully I will have some luck with that line ! Thanks for your help so far though Jacqueline :)
