Like Rosie I have not found anything else on Ethel(apart from Census records 1891-1911).
Can't see George Birch on the 1935 Valuation Rolls for Scotland(SP).

Have you tried the 1939 Register for England & Wales ?

Hi ev,
No luck with the1939.
They may have emigrated following the death of Ethel's mother in 1933. In which case does anyone have access to Worldwide records please?

Maybe you should get a copy of the marriage certificate to see what information it gives regarding his age and occupation and father's name ..Not seeing anything on Scotlandspeople
