Berwickshire / Scottish naming pattern
« on: Sunday 16 July 23 18:37 BST (UK)  »
Hi there,

I was wondering if there are any Scottish naming patterns? Like naming the first born son based after the father's father..i.e. John Smith, son of James Smith and Jane Smith, James Smith's father's name was John Smith. Hope I explained that right..Thank you for your time.

Northumberland / British naming patterns and missing death record
« on: Saturday 15 July 23 18:15 BST (UK)  »
Hi from Canada,

I am looking for my 2nd great grand aunt Barbara Christopher Fardy Ferguson Weatherhead 's death record. She was born in North Shields on the 13th of December 1854, but I can't find her after 1861 (cencus).

I was also wondering also if her middle names (Christopher Fardy Ferguson) are family names that would be relatives of the family? Just wondering if this is part of some British name pattern?

Thank you for your time.

I am part of a group called Faces of Agira and we are looking for a photo of the Canadian soldier that was killed in action in Sicliy in 1943. He married Doris Westfold in 1943 in Osted, Surrey,
I am looking for descendants or relatives of Doris Evelyn Joyce Westfold. I could not find any evidence that she remarried or had any children with Joseph Daigle. If you can help or give me tip on how
to find any information, it would be greatly appreciated, thank you for your time!

I thought the first name was "Constance" but it didn't match...
