Hi Tinkerbell

With the post 1855 date that you have, it should be fairly easy for you to find Alexander Williamson's birth record, which will give his parents' names.

I'm assuming that Charles Buckley and Susan Smith married in 1894/5. Getting this record will also give you both of  their parents' names.

The images can be found, viewed and downloaded from the Scotlands' People website www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk. It is pay to view but very reasonable. These should cost you about 6 units each - 1 unit = 20p.

Tinkerbell!

Parents of Alexander: f. Lindsay Williamson, Horse Dealer.  m. Mary Williamson ms Macmillan. (m 27 July 1880 Inverness).

Parents of Emily: f. Charles Buckley, General Pedlar. m. Sarah Buckley ms Smith.

GROS 098/000165


1901 Census.

Alexander Williamson. Head. age 31 Horse dealer. b Enzie Banffshire.
Emily Williamson Wife. age 29 b. London.
Mary Williamson. Daur. age 5 b Inverness.
Lindsay Williamson Son. age 2 b Inverness.

Living 35 Lower Kessock St. Inverness.


1881 Census.

Lindsay Williamson. Head. Age 35. Horse Dealer
Mary Williamson. Wife. Age 31……………….etc.

There are another 3 sons and 3 daughters.

All at 12 Telford Rd. Inverness.


There is a discrepancy between the marriage dates of parents on Alexander’s Birth Certificate and in their own Marriage Certificate.  No marriage found for the dates in Birth certificate.

Anyway, Alexander Williamson b 8.30pm 27th June 1870 at Rye-riggs (like this on the cert) but Ryeriggs is the place. Birth registered in the Parish of Enzie on 2nd July 1870.

Further information on ALEXANDER WILLIAMSON. He died 2nd July 1923 in York, Toronto, Ontario, leaving at least 2 children that I know of - MARY b. 1896 Inverness, and LINDSAY b.1899 Inverness. LINDSAY served with the Canadian Overseas Expeditionary Force, and died 25th May 1973 in Toronto.
