I need to use up my credits for Scotlands People. If you would like a look up. please give as much info as possible, to narrow the search results. This will give more people a chance before the credits run out. Census 1881, 1891, 1901. OPR Births/Baptisms 1553-1854. Births 1855-1903 OPR Banns/Marriages 1553-1854. Marriages 1855-1928. Deaths 1855-1953. Debbie

Hello Debbie, Many thanks for your very generous offer! I don't know if you will be able to help me or not as my info may be a bit too vague. All I know about my great, great grandfather (going by the information on his marriage certificate) is:- His name was John Everitt McQueen born c1865 in Scotland. His father's name was John McQueen too. On the marriage certificate of 1893 his age is given as 28. Please don't put yourself out, I know this is probably a long shot. Thanks again, Julie

hi debbie thans for the generous offer. could you look up james wilson robertson born 1912 (november) in alva then moved to alloa. he was my grandfather. he was one of eight children,2 girls and 6 boys. i know one of his brothers were called george and his two sisters were called isa and nellie. thanks for any info you can get,kate

Dear Debbie, Thanks for your offer. Please could you look for the death of a John Darlington between 1870 and 1880 in Milton, Glasgow, Lanarkshire?

Hi Julie, There are no birth registered for John Everitt McQueen between 1860 & 1870. However there are 85 registered simply as John McQueen, just between 1864 & 1866! Do you know which district of Scotland he was from, this would help narrow it down a bit? Debbie

Hi Katherine, Sorry, but births are only included to 1903. Debbie

Hi Linda, Nothing between those dates, in any area. Was it definitely in those 10yrs? Can try a wider range if you're not sure. Debbie

could you look up the birth of a mar(a)gret brown i know she was christened on 2nd May 1822 and if possible can you look up a marriage between martha marshall & james brown in the early 1820's they're most like to be found in renfrew(shire) (possibly port glasgow)

Hi Debbie, Not to worry. I thought it would be a problem. Many thanks for your time anyway, it is much appreciated. Best Wishes, Julie

Hi Lorraine, No, not too late! Did a blanket search for David Miller & Susan any area between 1860 & 1871 - no results. So, sorry Debbie

I wonder if you could look up a wedding around 1896 for a John & Mary Gallacher in the Coatbridge area who had a son in 1899 named Private John Gallacher that was Remembered with honour Doullens Communal Cemetery Extension No. 1, Somme France.Died age 19 in 1918. I would be really greatful as I am just starting out on my geneology route north. Thanks Elaine

Hi Kathryn, Yes I did know that, that's why I'm trying to use them up! lol I don't have much need for Scotland, at the moment, and I am fed up of having to pay another £6 every time I want to use the credits I've already paid for, then that time runs out and another £6 and................ad infinitum!!!! Debbie

Debbie

yes that is possible. Thanks a million for doing this. I really appreciate it. Elaine What is Old Monkland? is this a specific area. I do know they were from the Whifflet area.Mums just confirmed Grandma spoke of Old Monkland. Mary died around 1940s around age 80 I think John died earlier. Thanks again

Debbie - thanks for the kind offer. Looking for Walterina/Waterena Mowatt b1887 Married Malcolm Mcfiggins June 1910 in Lanark Glasgow. They possibly had a daughter called Waterena in Glasgow 1917. Not too sure of the spelling, her parents were called Walter and Catherine so I guess its a made up name!! Grateful for any help or any info on Mcfiggins Clan from Glasgow. Clare

Hi Deborah, It is very kind of you to offer. If you have any left could you have a look on the 1901 census for James McAulay aged aabout 53 born in Antrim, ireland. He should be in either Dalserf or Lesmahagow in Lanark. Best Regards Shona
