Find Ancestors

Im going to Edinburgh records office next week anyone want a look up doing? Have patience and i will do my best and do as many as i can. Kate

I have a request, but I don't know if you'll be able to get what I want. I need a marriage lookup. I know the date, location and both the names. Will what you find get anything more than that? It took place in 1813.

Hi Kate I wonder if you could look up a birth/paptism for a Daniel Bruce McCallum born c1805, the son of Donald McCallum and ? Blair, of Gallowgate Glasgow. Daniel was deported to Australia in 1828 for theft. Also one more if you have time the marriage of a Lachlan ROSS and Janet MATHISON (Matheson) most likely in Sutherland Scourie Parish c 1830. Not sure what types of record you can search or if I have provided enough detail? With much thanks Danielle

Thank you for this offer If you could find me any details on James Hastie born c 1883 Edinburgh parents James Hastie and Mary Hedderwick(mind he did put himself down as adopted on fathers death cert) mother was murdered 1912 in Potterrow Edinburgh. Married Grace Bell Wright who died 1931 Cannogate Edinburgh and can find no trace of him after this dont know if he had any children. Thanks again Maureen

Please could you check this one please either birth registry or 1871 census. James Reid b1868 St Georges Scotland his fathers name was William. I have tried on Scotlands people but to no avail. Thanks Marian

Hi Kate Thank you for your kind offer. I wonder if you would be able to look up the marriage of Malcom McNee(McNie) and Catherine Ferguson.Their first child that I can find was born in April 1792 in Balquhidder and then subsequent children in Kincardine . Catherine's name is spelt a no of ways as is Malcom.I am trying to go from these two backwards but am having trouble finding any info as I dont have either of their births so anything you can find would be great. I have narrowed their deaths down to between the birth of their last child in January 1800 to 1855 when the records are on Scotlands People so if you have time if you could see if you could find their deaths in Kincardine (supposition) it might shed light on everything else ! Many, many thanks Robyn NZ

Kate, in that case could I take you up on your offer. Please could you look for a marriage of John Johnston to Margaret Wilson on 19 May 1813. It should be in Newhaven, but definitely in North Leith. Many thanks :)

Thankyou for this offer, Would you be able to look up a couple of births for me please, They were sisters Isabella Stephen 9th Dec 1910 and Mary Ann Gardyne Nicoll Stephen 29th April 1911 both in Montrose, as you can see I must have one of the birth years wrong or they were not of the same parents !!!

Helllo Kate, If you have time can you look for a marriage in about 1842-43 for Chistopher Buchanan and Jean Blacklock possibly in Dumfries. From English census records he was born in Dumfries abt 1821, I hav'nt been able to trace their birth or marriages on the Scotland People site . Thanks, Doreen.
