Hi
I am searching for information on my ggg grandfather James Brodie b c1842 and died December 1875. From census returns in West Lothian where he was living he lists his birth place as the Orkney Isles.
From his death certificate his parents are listed as John Brodie and Ann Brodie ms Brown. From the IGI I have found a marriage between John Brodie and Ann Brown on 21 Nov 1833 in Stronsay but i cannot find James' birth on IGI or SP.
Can anyone help?
Many thanks
Tracey

Sorry, Tracey, but the only birth I can find is a submitted one for Margaret Miller Brodie, born 1853. I suspect you will have found the same. However, I think this is James' parents in 1861:
Address: Airy, Stronsay, Orkney John Brodie, m, head, 52, ag lab, Stronsay, Orkney Ann ", f, wife, 43, -, Stronsay, Orkney David ", m, son, 12, scholar, Stronsay, Orkney Margaret ", f, dau., 8, scholar, Stronsay, Orkney
And in 1851:
Address: Airy, Stronsay, Orkney John Brody, m, head, 41, agr labourer, Stronsay, Orkney Ann Brown, f, wife, 36, -, Stronsay, Orkney Ann Brody, m, dau., 11, -, Stronsay, Orkney James ", m, son, 8, -, Stronsay, Orkney Robert ", m, son, 5, -, Stronsay, Orkney David ", m, son, 3, -, Stronsay, Orkney
And in 1841:
Address: Easthouse, Stronsay St Nicholas, Orkney John Brodie, m, 30, ag lab & fisherman Ann ", f, 25, - Isabella ", f, 6, - John ", m, 4, - Ann ", f, 1, -
All born Orkney Islands

Thank you hume24
You've given me a lot more than I had and I'm very grateful. I have a few more bits of info to work with now which should hopefully take me back a little more.
At least the 1851 census shows James with his parents which is the first piece to tie him to them apart from his death cert.

Hi, you,ve probably got this info by now but I found this while researching my own relatives: at St Nicholas Cemetery, Stronsay erected by Ann Brown in memory of her husband John Brodie died 23/5/1876 aged 68yrs. There are a few other Brodies there
