Marion Callander - Please help me find her!
« on: Monday 22 January 18 01:08 GMT (UK) »
Hi
I'm looking for Marion Callander (this may be her current or maiden surname) who resided in Dundee.  She had a job role as house maid and spent time in Clement Park Nursing Home in Lochee around 1957.

Unfortunately I don't have a DOB for her but I guess it to be around 1940-42ish.

I haven't had any luck with Ancestry.com or other search sites. 

Please help, any information greatly appreciated.  Thanks in advance.

Hi , welcome to RC  :)

The death that Wendy has found looks likely.......
Marion Duggan . death 21st Feb. 1991 , 22 Caldrum Street , born 7th Sept. 1933.

Marion appears to have 3 different surnames at birth Callander , Burns , and Wallace.

Duggan and Brown are probably from Marion's marriages.

Oops where are my manners Welcome to Rootschat from me as well
Marion married twice 1st in 1973 and then again in 1986
She was born 1933 in Dundee
As these are more recent dates the only place you'll find the details are at Scotlands People website
Or at one of their search centres

Hi
Could she possibly come from Dumfries? Mention of a Marion Lorrane Callender aged 4 in Dundee Courier 1946. Couple of people with name you are looking for in electoral roles on Findmypast.
Though I would imagine she most probably married.

Hi guys, it's amazing what you've both found already! thanks so much.

I think she may have been born around 1940s and have confirmation that her usual residence was at 11 st fillans terrace in Dundee. 

I came across Marion from Dumfries several times in my search but wasn't sure this could be her.  Would you happen to have a link to the article please?

Is there a way to check addresses etc against a person?  She had a son who was born in Clement Park in July 57 too.

Thanks again xx
