Find Living Relatives

I am looking for my dads side of my family sad to say i can only remember bits , my dad lived in london , in 1962\63 at cable street . And Ican remember living in a flat in popular, across the road was prak with a concrete boat. plus living in st Annes flat in london my older brother Frank coming to tell my mum he was getting married . Ican remember climbing up his legs . I do hope with these bits of information some one can help :-(

Do you have your birth cert?

Is your father named on it?

And I would think the name is Mackechnie

Whose legs did you 'climb up'?

Is the name Mackechnie or Mackechine and is your dad's first name Francis?

Rose

If this is you, get a copy...................for the man's name

Births Dec 1962 (>99%)

MACKECHNIE Fiona M WRIGHT Stepney 5d 931

No other birth, and no marriage on freebmd.

I suspect both events were probably in Scotland, for which you will have to use Scotland's people, and pay for credits.

He also appears to be known by Robertson.

Rose

it was my brothers legs I climb up. yes my dad is on my birth cert.
At some time my mum was married to someone called Robertson.
My dads name is whuge Rosss .My brothers name is Francis

Can you check your spelling?

Pretty sure whuge Rosss is not a name. Could it be Hugh Ross?

Rose

You had a thread on this a few years ago:

Rose

it maybe whue

Sorry Fiona, no such name as WHUE

Either Hugh (Scottish)......or Huw (Welsh)

HUGH Mackechnie born 1825 Scotland is in Fiona's tree

All I know is that there are 4 brothers and 2 sisters on my dads side

This is the birth registration,a mix of surnames but not unusal for Scotland to have different spellings of surname McKain may also have been included in the surnames or was mis-spellt from the onset and re-entered as McKechnie but missed all the other names off,?

Were your half siblings born Perth?
Ronald 1950
Francis 1952
Flora V 1954

I think so ,thats three of the names I remember of my brothers and sisters , I do hope so

In 2013, you were given details of a possible death and advised to buy a copy of the cert.

Did you ever do so?
