Thomas Scott's death is registered in Stamford,77 in 1866. His wife Sophia also died in Stamford 80 in 1869. I'm trying to establish her maiden name and where and when they were married. I've only just joined RootsChat and I'm not too sure how this all works. Am I doing it correctly?

Hello, welcome and yes you are doing fine!
Rather than jump straight from their deaths to their marriage it might be best to go one step at a time and work back through the censuses, to trace their movements if any and see what family they had etc. Before we start hunting, can you say if you have already got them in 1861, 51 ,41 censuses?

All I have is the birth of their son Valentine Scott 14th April 1828, registered in Collyweston. Unlike Scotland a birth certificate in England gives no details of the parents marriage or the mother's maiden name, hence my frustration. I have no census details Many thanks for the prompt reply

But it isnt much help - as I am sure Sarah is NOT their daughter!

(Inotice there is a Rachel Scott next door but one - I am sure I saw her there on another census too)

Lots of submitted entries on IGI for Scotts in Collyweston - worth a look but remember submitted entries can be pure fiction sometimes www.familsearch.org

What does the "Y" stand for after the names in the 1851 census and also the "N"
