Help! Suggestions! on a John Henderson.
« on: Monday 25 November 13 03:25 GMT (UK) »
I have started to go over previous research I have done and believe I was headed down the wrong path.   

I am looking for a death certificate in hope to find parents names.  I want to buy some credits on Scotland people but with the name of John Henderson will I need to take out a bank loan?.  :P

John was in the 1911 census living at Kelvenside with his wife Jessie and sons John and Peter.   He was a cooper and born in about 1854 in Caithnessshire wick. 

His wifes name was Jessie Stephens or Steven.

So anyone have any suggestions on how to get the best out of the information I have without spending a mountain of money.

Thanks for your time

Debbie

I peeked at the census , I see his wife is from Fraserburgh and only one Jessie Stephen (incl spelling variations) married a John Henderson there and that was in 1875, his parents will be listed.

Family search has the marriage as 7th Oct 1875 Fraserburgh. Unfortunately no parents names on the transcription!
Lane, Burgess: Cheshire. Finney, Rogers, Gilman:Derbys
Cochran, Nicol, Paton, Bruce:Scotland. Bertolle:London
Bainbridge, Christman, Jeffs: Staffs
