Wow, thank you all for your help. Sorry, I'm still kind of new at this - started a while back and then gave up, just starting to try piece together the family tree again now. Appreciate all the help 😊 you have given me some ideas on what to look for next time too 👍🏻

Her Parents that I had were John Farr and Catherine Spence - as shown on the 1911 census.
The ones which I found on the marriage certificate were Catherine Paul and William Lawlor.
Found the Death certificate from 1948, same parents as those that were on the marriage certificate.

Hi! I'm looking for a great aunt whose name was Maria Farr born 1905 Glasgow,
I haven't really been able to find much about her.
Her married name was Fitzsimmons and I found her as a 'Farr' on the 1911 census.
On her marriage certificate however, she has different parents than those on the census (with different last names).
Wondering if anyone can help me in figuring out why? I've tried to look but have come up blank.

Thanks :)

I've found a picture of him in the Army, looking at his features I'd say he was very young, so world war 1.
He's also wearing a kilt, I'm not sure if that would help

Have you looked at the War memorials local to where he was living / brought up as his name hopefully would be on one if he died in the war.

I'm really not sure where to find them, are they online? I live halfway across the world.

When did his mother die?

She died in 1947 in Towhead

Wow! That's some awesome information! My James was born on 27th January.. is there any way they could have gotten his D.O.B wrong in any army/navy files?

Would Merchant Navy still be in the same records as the war/army ones?

In 1911 he was living in Anderston.
My grandmothers dad was the one who always said his brother had died in the war.
His birth year is definitely 1897 as I have the birth certificate.
