Hi Team,
I am interested in finding more information on some Palmer relations from Aberdeen area.
I can reference the following family
David Palmer who died in 1924 was married to Margaret Donaldson Smart who died in 1917.
There children
David Palmer B 1896 married Margaret Middleton Bruce in 1918
Jane Ann Bruce Palmer B 1897 married Alexander Law in 1921
Elizabeth Palmer B 1899 married John Martin Seek (from USA) in 1918
Margaret Palmer B 1900 married Peter Smith Craig Buchanan in 1918
Caroline Marx Palmer B 1902 married Alexander Noble in 1924
Charles Forbes Palmer B 1906
Violet Palmer B 1909 D 1913
I do have some other information but due to possible living people I cannot post.
I would be very grateful for any contact on this family
Thanks

If you google Caroline Marx Palmer you should find a recent Obituary which may be of interest.

Hi all... The last one to find and I am struggling.. The Palmer family I have managed to expand very well now and a few thank u`s to the help from others including this thread.. Thank u very much ...
My last one and this is David palmer born 4 March1896 in 12 WestPath Street, Aberdeen, Aberdeenshire, Scotland .. married 13 November 1918 to Margaret Middleton Bruce,,
Margaret sadly died 1921...
I have no records that I can find of David Palmer... I wonder if anyone can point me in the right direction for David? I have spent much time looking at many records across many countries but remain unsuccessful ..
If anyone can help here I would love to hear fro them..
Thank u

Hi Scott ,
Have you looked for a possible remarriage for David Palmer ?
SP has a marriage for David Palmer / Jane Aitken 1922 St Machar Aberdeen.
The only other likely David Palmer marriage in Aberdeen(shire) was 1937.
Can't see a death for a J* Palmer / Aitken in Scotland.
