It's so annoying! On one of the certificates there's a parent's name that I'm almost 100% sure is wrong - that was a neighbour who was the informant on that one. On the one with just the question marks, it was the grand-daughter who was the informant.

With mine there always seems to be some sort of glitch - like you find a statutory death certificate and  instead of the parents' names, there are only question marks :-(

Hi. I know how frustrating this can be. I'll have a look at the dates etc you mentioned and see if I can help in any way through my branch of the family.

Hi Jill, I've got back to the mid 1700s with mine.

Someone once told me that Stronner was derived from the profession of slater. no idea if it's true or not though.

Hi Jill, thanks for your reply. I've been concentrating on the Stronners for way too long to be honest! Around 1000 people in my tree but these ones are the people I seem to keep coming back to.

I've found a few new people (spouses, children etc) just very recently, so I'm back on their trail again. I've not tied mine to the branch from outside of the Arbroath area just yet, but I'm hoping I can. I'll try to get their details posted here soon in the hope that we can possibly tie them together.

I have quite a few Stronners in my tree but mine seem to be more from the Arbroath/St Vigeans area. I'd love to see if they could all be tied together.
