Mhairi Queen of Scots

Mhairi Queen of Scots Report 3 Jan 2008 21:42

What I do find odd though, is that there is this marriage

1927 DONALD ANDREW CAMPBELL MITCHELL HELEN GOWRIE BLYTHSWOOD GLASGOW CITY/LANARK

Then in 1944, this death

1944 DONALD ANDREW CAMPBELL M 54 SPRINGBURN GLASGOW CITY/LANARK

I cant see the name being so "changed" though.

Will go and have a little search around and get back to you later if I find anything.

SP keeps kicking me off at the moment but as soon as it lets me back on I'll take a closer look. I like a challenge :P

You dont by any chance have a copy of Bernards birth, do you? Birth certs usually mention the date and place the parents married.

Unfortunately his birth is far too late for looking up online.

Got it!

1913 DONACHIE ANDREW RIELLY NELLIE ROW OR RHU /DUNBARTON

Its also down as

1913 DONACHIE ANDREW REILLY NELLIE ROW OR RHU /DUNBARTON

Notice the slight change in her maiden name.

Hi
Are we sure this is her because her name was Helen Reilly not Nellie, or am i being a bit silly with names being shorten.

Thanks
Samantha

Samantha this should help

You need the following website & add it to favourites whilst your there

http://www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk/

I think you already have your login & password so insert this on to the page (middle right hand side)

You should now see a pink box on the left handside of your screen-Press the line that says "marriage 1855-1933"

You should now have a form on your screen

Insert the details that Mhairi gave you which are-

1913 DONACHIE ANDREW REILLY NELLIE ROW OR RHU /DUNBARTON

It will say this will cost you 1 credit, press YES

you will see the details on your screen & it will say 5 credits to see original-YES

& hopefully you will have the info on your screen.

If you haven't put money on your account yet don't worry you will get an on screen prompt, follow instructions to pay & you should be directed back to where you were.
