Trying to ascertain whether these are the same people - there are lots of Wallaces in Bathgate Cemetery, trying to connect them all.

Wasn't thinking too well there, was I?? (embarrased )

I have 4 Wallace's that I am trying to fit in somewere

They are Thomas Wallace d 30 Dec 1878
              James Wallace d 6 May 1874
              Janet Wallace d 17 Jun 1888
              Margaret Shaw d 1906
All buried Bathgate Cemetery and on the same Headstone. I have so many James and Thomas these might be a missing generation, and I think Janet is a daughter of either James or Thomas.

Also looking for more info on Isabella Smith d 21 Apr 1888 daughter of James Wallace (but which James Wallace)  - she is mentioned on the second to last line on this Headstone for John Wallace - Surgeon

Their death ceertificates should clarify that - they all died after 1855, so the dcs should be available on Scotland's People www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk and will tell you the names of the parents of each one, including their mothers' maiden surnames.

Maybe try West Lothian board, for Bathgate.

You can download the will etc of James, Merchant, who died 1844 from Scotlandspeople (all 75 pages).
It does name his children and his spouse.

Interesting marriage entry http://books.google.co.uk/books?id=4V4AAAAAYAAJ&pg=PA717&lpg=PA717&dq=James+Wallace+Merchant+Bathgate&source=bl&ots=vtJksT-_JM&sig=NmaDBl4IIFQQ8f1suylXa9M0sRY&hl=en&sa=X&ei=vxnLUo3cI9SrhAefuIHACA&ved=0CCUQ6AEwAQ#v=onepage&q=James%20Wallace%20Merchant%20Bathgate&f=false
