James Adamson Laird
« on: Sunday 29 July 18 18:41 BST (UK) »
Hi, James Adamson Laird was deceased by 2.3.1844 when his son William Laird (1817) married in London. James occupation recorded as shipwright. James married Margaret Smith 26th Sept 1812 in London. Cannot find in English records his birth or death, so thats a bit limiting to finding his birth, but if anyone can find him in Scotland then that would be great.

Have you checked Scotlands People?  www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk

Was the son born in England or Scotland?

EDIT

Was Margaret still alive in 1841?  Is she alone?
