wilkinson, alfred
« on: Monday 20 April 09 09:28 UTC (UK) »

looking for information on father and mother of alfred wilkinson, born circa 1869, place unknown, (father john wilkinson, mother mary burkett), Alfred's marriage to elizabeth henderson was at Castle craig lodge, newlands in 1890, certificate shows him as a veterinary student and his father as a farmer (deceased). His address at that time was 99 Broughton street edinburgh.
It looks as if elizabeth had a sister mary jane henderson who was married the same day to James Milne welsh.
Marriage cert attached.

Can anyone help

Hi Mrs a,
It's been a very good week for me. Thank you for the offer of pictures of Castle Craig, they would be gratefully accepted I can assure you.

Monica, I can't thank you enough, I have been struggling for a long time, and making very little progress. I am still a bit of a learner at this as I am sure you can see.
I am amazed at the blank spaces you have managed to fill, so quickly.

Thank you all very much for your help and I hope I can find an opportunity to return the favours.
