Hi I'm looking for anyone related to Annie Mifsud married to Arthur Lockyer. Annie was born in Malta. There were four girls born in Malta, one of witch is my Grandmother. Once back in England by 1901 there were another four children three born in Devon and one in Walthamstow. Children, Edith, Bessie, Beatrice, Gessey, Gracy, Alfred, Florence, & Edward. Bessie died when an infant. |

A women's maiden name stays with her more in Scotland. Most gravestones for a married woman are in her maiden name (eg Mary MacDonald wife of John Smith), so that may be why her death is registered under Fuller. |

Another little update I have ordered both death certificates from Scottish people, 1 for Edith Fuller the other her older sister Maud. looks like I could be on to a winner here, all sound good dates of birth mother maiden name ect, ect, It also gave me a extra name for Maud ( Cairns) I have found a marriage for Maud Fuller to a James E Cairns in 1945 Westminster, but for some reason she was registered at death in her maiden name of Fuller ( I wonder why, divorced may be ) |

Just a little follow up I think Potty you could be on to something with a death for Edith in 1984. I played around the site of Scottish People and found Edith Lilian Fuller born 1889 died 1984 Forfar, Angus. |

Diane, there is a contact tab on the airlie estates website. You could try writing to them. |

Diane, you can search for free on scotlandspeople, although you need credits to view the results. Nothing coming up for the 1911. One death coming up for an Edith Lilian Fuller of the right age from 1969 to 2012. By playing around with the dates, she died in Angus in 1984. |

Diane, nobody subscribes to Scotland's people - it's pay-per-view so you need credits. |

This is the website for the Ogilvy estate - they might have staff records for that time: |

That's odd, Reggie - his obituary in the Telegraph gives his birth as 14 Sept 1928, Cortachy Castle, in Angus but the Guardian says London! Well, wherever he was born, the family seat was Cortachy Castle, so Scotland is still a possibility. |
