Find Ancestors

Can see what you are trying to do, but i think the only possible way you will find them all together to make the link will be the 1921 census. It is due to be on line January 2022. Fingers crossed

If you have ALL of the info, what are you asking?

You can look for the births of their children on freebmd

The best way for you to deal with this is to put the names etc on your tree on here, as it gives you a 'picture' of the family group

I see you've got your tree on Ancestry

Re-reading your post you say your nan was the one who married David Scott, but you say that Dorothy was your great grandmother. Sorry, but she can’t be both

Never assume - you can cause yourself problems that way

What do you mean you can’t find a connection to your ‘nan’.?

She must be the child of your great grandparents.

What was her name? Was it Margaret?

i only have david scott d.o.b where he married and his death. i was assuming he was local to petersfield hampshire.

yes possible parents edith and charles.
i have the there records and the other other siblings birth marriage deaths. with their families

i am just unable to find a connection with them all and my nan.

all the information by you all i have discovered previous.

and no other info on my great grandad is it best to get a copy of the marriage certificate ?

many thanks.

Can’t hope to find David unless you can tell us where he was born. More than one birth for the name registered in last two quarters of 1907
