Looking for Angus Dale, thought to have been born in Scotland, was a merchant seaman, dob approx. 1872. Known to have 1 daughter possible two.

Have you looked on any census for him

Do you have any other info on him. Ie parents names.who he married etc

His name isn't coming up,in any records other than a 1968 Kelly's directory for Glasgow

No idea if this could be him or not - not born Scotland - but posting it just in case.
He's a ship's steward:

Birth Year: abt 1873
Birth Place: Oldham

EDIT:

No, this is probably the man above:

Births Jun 1873 (>99%)
DALE Albert Oldham 8d 548

In 1891 he's a bar tender in Stockport, Cheshire.

Thank you for your replies. Yes I have tried the Scotland site census but nothing showing up, wondered if he was not in Scotland when census taken -being at sea.

Patricia, are you sure you don't know anything else about him? Do you have any info on his daughter(s)? or who, where and when he married?

There are only 3 births registered in Scotland for Angus Dale from 1855 to 2014. The first was in 1890; the second in 1929 and the third in 1981.

How did you work back to him please?

As already asked, do you have any idea of the names of his daughters? When or where they were born? Did he marry? Or even a name for the mother of his daughters?

You must have some more information to have worked back to him.

On my Mother-in-Laws (died 1969) two marriage wedding cert she names her Father as Angus Dale a merchant seaman. On Mother-in-Laws death cert states (by her 2nd husband) born in Glasgow approx. 1900. First marriage 1920 in Southport second marriage in Bristol abt 1929. Other members of the family & myself have tried to find the daughter (Mother-in-Law) over a number of years including this site but does not seem to exit under the name she gives which is Queenie Rubelar Dale. So thought would try the name she gives as her Father. Nothing ever mentioned about her life to her children. The strange thing is that her second child who grew up in Scotland (we think with Grandparents) on his marriage (1940) and death cert (1946) he states his Mothers maiden name as Queenie Rose!

Her year of birth is stated as 1902. The birth date is difficult to read?

Her death reg says 25 Feb 1900 (this tallies with additional info on the 1939 register

Queenie Exon - Female Unpaid Domestic Duties Married 8 2

A tree on Ancestry has her date of birth as 25 Feb 1900. father Angus born 1860 Mother Minnie born 1865, but no evidence,

Andy

Looks like her maiden name is Andrews


Births Sep 1920
Exon Henry T Andrews Bristol 6a 165

This looks like the birth reg of the Henry b1920 - MMN given as Andrews!

Whoops - forgot to post the birth record but see Gins has!

Looks like Henry was her step-son:

The tree on Ancestry has her as Rose Queenie Dale. Scotlandspeople has one birth for a Rose Dale in 1900, in Ayr but that is probably this one:

Posting because it will avoid duplication if helpers know what has already been tried.

On Ancestry message board from Patricia

Angus Dale born 1830 Glasgow (I think) daughter Queenie Rubelar Dale born 1900, married 1920 Lawrence McQuiggan 1890-1926. Any info on these families. Regards Patricia

Surely he couldn't have fathered Queenie at the age of 70

Do you have her son Donald's birth certificate please? If Queenie returned to Scotland for his birth, the address on the certificate may be the home of a relative.
