Hi Debbie, My mother had her parents death certificates and she never did know who her grandparents were but although her mother and father were married in Dundee her grandparents were Irish. This may be the reason, I just don't know!! But my husbands parents death certificates didn't have his grandparents names on them either and one was Scottish and the other English.?? So strange how it different. Betty

Hi Betty, I have death certs for 1869,1878,1897 & 2 in th 1920's and all name the parents so maybe it is different counties, most of mine were in Dumbarton & Glasgow. Georgina.

Hi Betty I also have Scottish death certs which give the deceased parents names, though they aren't always the right names. It must be different in different Counties. Debbie

Hi Georgina, The certificate of my mother and fathers deaths didn't show their parents Georgina. It just listed their marriage partners name. Betty

Hi Debbie, It won't give you Mary Jane's parents names on her death certificate as she was married when she died. You could maybe get them on the marriage certificate if she married in Scotland. Betty.

I have no credits left for Scotlands people and need the death record for Mary Jane O'Hagan, nee O'Donnell. Mary Jane was born in Ireland but she came to Glasgow, Scotland with her husband and gave birth to a son Thomas O'Hagan in 1884. Her husband was Patrick O'Hagan, they married in 1878 putting her birth possibly circa 1860(?) If anyone could look up this death and get me Mary Jane parents names i would be very grateful. Thankyou Debbie
