That is the type of info which should have been included at the outset.

Are you referring to Thomasina Grahams birth cert? Yes

If so - Please post full details of her birthplace tryed to post image of birth record but image to big

Her fathers full name and his occupation Robert graham  shepherd

Her mothers christian name and maiden name ann Mcines graham

[CaroleW]

tryed to post image of birth record but image to big

Posting full image breaches copyright rules.  You are meant to just type out the details into the reply in the way you have done but you have not said where she was born

Please post full details of her birthplace

Can you please ensure that all questions are answered before posting a reply to save time and effort

As you deleted your reply re: Thomasina's birthyear it would be as well to show her full date of birth to save further confusion for anybody reading this post

I think you said it was 1906 but I can't be sure.  If it was - you will need to lookup the family on the 1911 census by buying credits on Scotlands People

Hi Becky and welcome to Rootschat

As Carole says, it's best to put on all the information you know on your post so the people on Rootschat can help you. Names are not enough. We need to know dates/places/occupations etc.

Have you used the Scotlands People website www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk?
That would be the site to use to find Robert and Mary's marriage certificate and then start working backwards.
Good luck,
Looby

My grans birth date is 10/11/1919 .
her parents marred in 1903 but don't no the date

[CaroleW]

So you are now saying that Thomasina Graham was born in 1919 - not 1906

Her parents were Robert Graham occ shepherd and Ann McInnes who you think were married in 1903

Have you checked Scotlands People as previously advised to find that marriage and confirm who Robert Grahams parents were?

Have you checked the 1911 census for Robert and Ann as previously advised to find his birthyear and birthplace?

Until you do both those things - you will not be able to progress further.  The 1901 census has 7 entries for the name Robert Graham born between 1875-1885 living in Dumfries in 1901 so how do we know which one is your Robert Graham without knowing his birthyear/birthplace and his parents names?

There is a 1901 entry which matches his occupation of Shepherd who was b Applegarth in 1879.  However - he is living with his grandparents Robert & Margaret Graham

He was with his grandparents in 1881 as well so there is a possibility he may have been illegitimate

You will have to buy credits as SP is a pay per view website

www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk 

When you have that information from the 1911 census and from the marriage record - please post details here

So you are now saying that Thomasina Graham was born in 1919 - not 1906 yes 1919 at Kirkpatrick juxta
Her parents were Robert Graham occ shepherd and Ann McInnes who you think were married in 1903

Yes marred in dumfries 9th January 1903

Have you checked Scotlands People as previously advised to find that marriage and confirm who Robert Grahams parents were?

Yes but can't look at images as iPad don't have java ,

Have you checked the 1911 census for Robert and Ann as previously advised to find his birthyear and birthplace ,24 take away from 1903 u get is year  he was born 1887 don't have birth place

Until you do both those things - you will not be able to progress further.  The 1901 census has 7 entries for the name Robert Graham born between 1875-1885 living in Dumfries in 1901 so how do we know which one is your Robert Graham without knowing his birthyear/birthplace and his parents names?

Yes but can't look at images as iPad don't have java ,

Until you view the image you will not be able to progress his ancestry.  Have you bought any credits on Scotlands People to view the entry and the 1911 entry as well?

This was my question above

Have you checked the 1911 census for Robert and Ann as previously advised to find his birthyear and birthplace

This is your reply

24 take away from 1903 u get is year  he was born 1887 don't have birth place

You don't appear to have viewed the 1911 entry otherwise you would have his birthplace

[Becky Thomson]

Robert Graham his birthyear1887
birthpllace don't no
his parents name john and Mary graham 

[CaroleW]

24 take away from 1903 u get is year  he was born 1887

Suggest you look at that arithmetic again

Robert Graham his birthyear1887

That would make him 16yrs old when he married in 1903

birthpllace don't no

As per my reply above

You don't appear to have viewed the 1911 entry otherwise you would have his birthplace

his parents name john and Mary graham

Where did you suddenly get his parents names from if you haven't viewed his marriage cert?  If you have viewed the marriage cert - what was his fathers occupation and what was Mary's maiden name
