William FLEMING &Jessie McDonald
« on: Tuesday 21 March 17 11:33 GMT (UK) »
I am trying to find the children to William FLEMING & Jessie FLEMING (McDonald)

William lived in Glasgow (Tinsmith) and they married at St. Nicholas, Aberdeen August 1856.

I have a marriage certificate for a Mary Fleming(parents William & Jessie) who married age 29 in 1897. This would give her birth year around 1868. Can't find her birth entry.

I know William & Jessie had George & Jessie (Twins) b.1869 in Hutchinsontown, Glasgow
Joseph FLEMING b.12 April 1874 Calton, Glasgow. He died July 3 1899 age 25 yrs. (Mary was in Glasgow in 1899 as she was the informant on her brother's death cert.)

I would imagine between 1856 / 1868  and 1869 /1874 they would have had other children.

Any information would be very much appreciated.

That is Mary's birth in 1866. Also tells me William & Jessie lived in Aberdeen after getting married and then returned to Glasgow at some stage.The twins were born in 1869 Glasgow.

Many thanks

It appears to be my Mary :) -  Mary was married in Falkirk in 1897. It also appears William was visiting his daughter and family in 1901. Sadly, William died later that year 7 November 1901 at Adelphi Street, Bridgeton, Glasgow.

Many thanks again

I don't think they had a son before 1861 - perhaps I am wrong.
