Were the parents of William Welsh(born 1938) William Welsh and Annie Cupchunas ?

Can you post the section of the marriage certificate that you cannot read ?

Sorry I can't upload the marriage certificate as it's saying the file is too big & I don't know how to reduce it.

Could be different folks, but there are a number of mentions in local newspapers of the 1940s, of a Nicholas and Willie Welsh, who were involved in a St Brigid's Newmains Concert Party.

Oh where did you find that?
They did have a musical background so sounds possible.
Thank you

Hi Steph

I can give you some information on Mary (May) Clark.  Her parents were Frank and Mary, Millfield Avenue, Motherwell.  She had 4 brothers, John, Frank, Jimmy and Alex (all deceased except for Frank).  Hope this helps
