Title: Catherine Heron and Robert Brown (circa 1900!)
Post by: sarah_robbo on Sunday 04 February 18 15:14 GMT (UK)

Hello!
I’m going round in circles looking for some records for my boyfriend’s Great Grandfather and his wife.

Robert Brown (born circa 1900-1905 in Glasgow and married Catherine Heron (who was born circa 1902-05).

Their son (my boyfriend’s grandad) was born Thomas Heron Brown on 28th June 1935 and christened at Baptised at the Catholic Church, St Anthony’s in Govan.

I am looking for Catherine and Robert’s marriage and details On their other children James, John and Betty!

I’ve just picked up his tree for a break from mine!!

Help!

Sarah

Hi Sarah

There is a marriage in Blytheswood, in 1928 between Robert Brown and Catherine Heron. Robert seems a little older than you say (32) and RAF.

If you think it's correct, I'll give you more details or send me a PM with your e-mail and I can send the cert.
