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.
