Hello Laura, I see you are bored perhaps my situation will be a test for you. I am Pam Reid of Nz and my grandfather was born in Scotland in Stirling. He was born Thomas Boyle, his father also a Thomas Boyle (there are 1000's of them, his mother was Frederina Saunders. It appears they live close to each other Thomas at 6 Upper Bridge Street and Frederina at 6 or 10 Upper Bridge Street. I have a copy of their Marriage Certificate. Frederina's mother maybe Grace Saunders and she died 13-121922? at Torphichen at Bridge House.Husband Thomas a coalminer and the authorities informed by grandson, my grandfather. Grace was a Kerr before marriage. Her parents ? were Francis Kerr and Grace Dodds. Grace and Thomses marriage date 3-1-1865?. Of the Boyles there is not a lot of information as the parent married a couple of days before Grandad was born 9-12-1896. My grandfather married my grandmother Helen Ritchie Danskin 14-71923 and my mother was born Annie Danskin Saunders 8-5-1924. My grandfathers parents went their own ways sometime after grandfathers birth. Not sure if they devoreced or not. His mother and grandmother I believe made and sold sweet for a living in Stirling. Any information would be invaluable. I am planning a trip to scotland next year hopefully. I have have family their but are cousins of my late mother and are all elderly. Kind regards to you Pam of New Zealand. [email protected]

Hi Laura,
Can I ask you to look up two people for me.? one is my Great Grandfather James Thomerson born 1833 not sure where. He lived in London in the mid 1800's and was married to Esther Holyome.
Also my Grandfather George Charles William Blake found him in 1901 census but can't find him previous to that very frustrating !! was born at Spitafields London 1872/3

Many Many Thanks
Christine

I cant find anything for Emma Ranson in 1881, and couldnt track down a marriage or death in Suffolk, i did find this marriage in Hertfordshire:

England & Wales, FreeBMD Marriage Index: 1837-1983
about Emma Ranson
Name: Emma Ranson
Year of Registration: 1876
Quarter of Registration: Oct-Nov-Dec

Page: 559

You would have to order the cert to see if it is the right one, then i will be able to track them through the census and give you her death details.

hope this helps, L x
