Help Required - Henry Campbell b 1901?

[marythorburn]

Looking for parents of Henry Campbell who married Helen Barclay Lees on the 31/12/1925, Queensferry, West Lothian.  According to this certificate he was born in 1901.  He names his parents as John William Campbell and Sarah Stewart. I cannot find a marriage for John and Sarah, nor a birth for Henry.  According to his death certificate in 1975 he was 73 years of age. Any suggestions appreciated.

Hi Mary

Just adding the link to previous posts on Henry in recent weeks www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php/topic,553756.0.html

As you are aware, everyone so far has struggled to find anything. Unless you are able to confirm a Scottish connection to his parents and his birth, might also be worth considering he may have:

1. Been born in outside of Scotland - e.g., Ireland for example
2. Parents may not have been married and there is no marriage to be found for them.

It would help you lots to be able to confirm his place of birth to then try and work back from there. The 1911 census is likely the place to focus on now given that other research routes haven't as yet been successful
