There's a birth for a Felix in Livingston:

FELIX MCKENNA
Birth: 13 FEB 1871   Livingston, West Lothian, Scotland
Parents: FELIX MCKENNA & ELIZABETH ROBERTSON

I can't find a birth for his parents. Obviously the Felix on your marriage cert. would be the father.

Many thanks for that info.  For the past four years I have been trying to find information on Patrick McKENNA & siblings without success.  I saw the name Felix McKENNA & wondered if he was connected to Pat. I thought their can't be too many Felix McKENNAs about. 

1868 marriage Felix McKENNA & Margaret MILLER

1869 marriage Felix McKENNA & Elizabeth ROBERTSON

1873 death Felix McKENNA sp.Elizabeth ROBERTSON

1912 death Felix HART or McKENNA sp.Margaret MILLER

Unfortunately the death certificates only record the father's name as Michael McKENNA so I remain no wiser.

In 1881, Felix (b. 1871) is living with his mother's side of the family, the Robertsons. He has a brother called Michael born c.1873.

I'll check that out with on the 1881.

Cheers
