Thank you

Nellie....Am I right in thinking you have Ancestry...? They have a Military Records site...

Where would I search for Charles Morrison,s Military Records please Thank you

Thank you Erin I will search Scotlandspeople and see if i can find anything .. you never know maybe searching somewhere else might just help with a birth for James thanks Nellie

Nellie...Have you tried to locate Charles Morrison's Birth in Scotland...according to the 1911 Census he states his place of birth as Scotland (see my post 17 July 1916 on this thread.)
I don't know what other info.it will give that you don't already have relating to James Morrison and Mary McManus but may clarify the question of whether James was in the Army....(none of the other Births show this to be the case)
You could also look to find Charles' Military records (1901 Census he was in RDFus. Victoria Barracks Henry St Belfast)

Just to clarify for the benefit of other researchers, Scotish marriage certificates do name both parents including the mother's maiden surname but it is Scottish birth registrations that give the date and place of the parents marriage.

Nellie, Irish death certificates don't give as much information as Scottish ones either. I bought a copy of my Great Grandmother's death certificate and it didn't name her husband. It just said she was the widow of an Iron Moulder. It didn't name her parents but fortunately I knew roughly when she died, where she died and it was an unusual surname.

Thank you Erin I will have a look now

Nellie if you go back to page 5 on this thread you will see I have posted the details of James and Mary's marriage >>>I transferred it over from one of your other threads. .Irish Mothers...

Thank you Erin I thought the MC was a shorter version of a full one .. as i am Scottish and on our MC,s it gives both parents with the year and place where they wed , I thought it might be the same in Ireland , Do you think if I got the name and address of the church where James and m Mary got wed that they would let me have the information on them many thanks Nellie

Nellie ...What is written on the MC is exactly what the MC says...that is the copy of the Civil Cert.

You also have on this thread the marriage of James Morrison and Mary McManus....

What can we help with to move forward...?

I have Wm and Hannah,s MC .. but I thought I could also get a full copy and it would have both parent,s , for both WM and Hannah then it could help me to find their parents MC to , with no Parents or aunts and uncles left in my husbands family to ask It is quite hard to find them Nellie

Hi All I have a post from Maureen dated 20 jul 1916 at 20:29 , It mentions that James Morrison born abt 1854 in Ireland was in the army and served 30 years ,and I would like to know how I can find when he joined and which part of the army he was in many thanks Nellie

Hi Erin He is the father of Archibald Mc naught born abt 1706/1709 whose wife was Florence Turnour , I found them through Scotlands people as it was quite easy , It gives the parents and sometimes the where and when married , so i just followed on from there , maybe i have not done it properly and that is why i have got so far so quickly Nellie

Nellie...My first question is how you got back to him ..second is where in Scotland....?
