Hi Bambie

The IGI on www.familysearch.org

Has the following:

Alexander Welsh -
11 June 1802, Kilsyth
John Welsh and Janet Sinclair

Margaret Paterson -

8 January 1801, St Ninians
Walter Paterson
Isabel Forrester

1 October 1799, St Ninians
William Paterson
Margaret McArthur

These might or might not be them. If you have death dates for them and they died in Scotland after 1855, their death certificates will give their parents' names. These will be on the Scotlands People website www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk. It's pay to view but a certificate, which you can view and download, should cost 6 units (1 unit =20p) - a lot cheaper than the English equivalent and having much more information.

Hi Bambi

As a relief from those ancestors of mine that i told you about when you PMed me, I've had a look for the death cert of your Alexander. Struck lucky straight away:

4 July 1862, Rhinn of Milton, St Ninian, widower of Margaret Paterson. Aged 59.
Parents - James Welsh, tartan weaver, deceased and Janet Welsh, MS Scobie, deceased. No medical attention  ???

GROS Ref - 488 79

No sign of Margaret's death and in 1861 Alexander was a widower, living Glasgow Road, Rhinns of Milton, a nail breaker, b. St Michael, with son John aged 18*, so it's highly likely that she died before 1855  :(

Just sticking my nose in here . . . . .

The area is actually Whinns of Milton. Might be less confusing at a later date.
