Midlothian / Re: Christina Robertson Malcolm: Birth/death?
« on: Tuesday 10 October 17 14:23 BST (UK) »
So! With the help of your tips about the dates for Christina's birth, I was able to find her in the civil registries (I have been buying lots of Scotland's People credits, but apparently not searching well). It turns out that her mother's name was Annie McCoy and her father was David. I do believe that these are correct and not a different family, as Annie's birth place was down as Ireland, and the names of siblings and known street addresses reappear in subsequent census and birth/death listings.
After this discovery, the floodgates opened and I was able to find a treasure trove of information.
Thank you again!
