That's what we're here for Jan. Sometimes you just need a second pair of eyes to check for you. And of course we sometimes get it wrong too. ;)

If in doubt it is always worth getting another certificate, or looking for the person in the census to double check any details you are unsure of. As this looks like a Scottish certificate, a marriage or birth of the deceased person will (or should) give same details about the parents.  :) Maybe worth using a couple of credits on Scotland's People to ease your mind ...
