Post by: Aynn on Sunday 31 January 16 22:52 GMT (UK)
I am searching for any info on Robert Carlton, the info that I have on him is, DOB: August 1897 in Barhead, Glasgow East Renfrewshire, age 3 resided at Neilston Renfrewshire, he was married to a Jean?? (I have two last names) He was also married to or involved with Elizabeth (Lizzie) Gallacher with whom he had a child that he gave up after Lizzie's death in 1940, Robert died approx. 1963, any help would be appreciated
Thank you

Hi

It's not very clear exactly what type of info you are looking for.

You appear to already have 1901 details showing parents as Charles & Susan.

Scotlands People is the only website available to look for any possible marriage.  As the child will have been born after 1914 you would have to buy a copy of the birth cert which should tell you whether the parents were married

Marriage certs up to 1939 can be downloaded from the SP website

SP is a pay per view site via credit purchase  www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk

I have most of this info but am hoping to find out if any of his relatives would have any info on Lizzie, She is the focus of my search and have been going around in circles in regards to her!
Will check out that site.
Thanks

Hi

All of Roberts siblings will now be deceased - he was the youngest in 1901.  You would be dependant on finding their descendants and as he had 8 older siblings in 1901 that would be a mammoth task.

If Lizzie died in Scotland, then her death cert will give you her age and parents names etc

SP is showing 9 matches to a death for Elizabeth Gallacher in 1940 but no marriage to a Robert Carlton prior to 1940. 

If Robert married in Renfrewshire - there is only one match for a marriage between 1917-1940
