Hello Izzy,

At what stage did your grandparents get together... and have you ever applied for your grandmothers death cert from the GRO in Edinburgh.. on that certificate you probably would find her parents names, and that at least would give you somewhere to start.

She should appear on at least the 1891 and 1901 census and that would give you any of the family alive at that point.

sadly the death records on line only go to 1954 so can't help you there... but certainly would advise on applying for the cert...

Best wishes and good hunting
