Thanks for looking Deborah

Hiya, I think i have Peter & Mary on 1861 name index. It says Peter was born in Stirlingshire around 1833 and Mary was born in Ireland around 1836. Children include Sarah, Peter, Mary & John. Marys surname is spelt Cassey in 1861.

Hi Dawn Thank you very very much for the kind offer. I don't know if you can help me but I would appreciate any info. My ladies name is Mary Fraz(s)er and the only information I have on her is that she was born in the Isle of Syke and in 1852 she married. On her marriage cert she is underage. I would presume her birth to be around 1836. Don't be too worried if you can't find her as I appreciate the lookup. Irene in NZ

Thanks for trying Dawn, I did find one in St Martins London where she was married, but the census say Berwick upon Tweed. With such a common name one cant make guesses so I'll have to sit on it. Regards Christina

Hi , Dawn , Have searched scotlandspeople repeatedly but cannot find the following ...Marriage ,David Hamilton = Sarah Turk c1847ish...baptism Sarah Hamilton c 1848ish....on the 61 census daughter Sarah is aged 11.born Scotland.. They were in Guisborugh N Yorks on the 61 so I'm thinking they were in the Southern area of Scotland prior to this. Many thanks , Joyce

Thank you very much for getting the information for me! Does ch stand for christened? From census data the latter entry is more likely to be correct.

Thanks for taking the time to look anyway. Mark

Hi Dawn thank you so much for looking for me. Your are a treasure!! Viv XX

IAN DONALDSON Hi Ian Yes ch stands for christening. I'm glad that one of them looks like your man. If I can help anymore just let me know and I'll see what I can do. Dawn :-)
