Scotland / Re: William Robertson married Margaret McKay?
« on: Thursday 16 July 20 09:06 BST (UK)  »
Hi guys, took your advice and found a death cert for William Robertson - it showed one marriage only to Margaret Fraser.  Found birth cert for child John Robertson - parents William and Margaret (McKay) 3 years difference to what was on his death certificate. I found other siblings but am unsure of the difference in birthplaces? I also couldn't ascertain on Margaret's birth her fathers occupation? Please see attached. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Still can't find a marriage for them - William Robertson and Margaret Mckay on Scotlands People website?
Cheers

Thank you for the information. I don't have William's death certificate - I sent through his son John's death certificate in first post - naming his parents and place of birth as Inverness shire. Being William Robertson and Margaret McKay.  He was born 1831, married in 1851 to Isabella Nobel (Noble) Daviot & Dinlichity and settled in Victoria Australia. First child born 1852 Joseph in Australia. He died 1895 and was aged 64 in Victoria Australia.

Cheers

Thanks Ev, I had been given info that William Robertson was born around 1810 and Margaret McKay about 1815.  Children born : John Robertson ( death cert) born 1831 married Isabella Noble 1851. And that William Robertson in 1851 census was at 18 St Andrews Street Dundee. South Leith. Maybe I am being led up the garden path. But John's death cert shows parents names as above.

Hi guys, have a little bit of a stumbling block. I have a death certificate of John Robertson ( married Isabella Noble 1851 Daviot & Dunlichity) John born 1831 to William Robertson & Margaret McKay. Death certificate only states Inverness shire for birth place.
Other children : Joseph 1838, Margaret 1844, and William 1846 - all born Leith? John and Isabella came out to Australia approx 1851-1852. Cannot find marriage of his parents and also to know whether the rest of the family stayed in Scotland?

Cheers from down under

Looking for assistance with the place of marriage - uncertain.  and also confirmation that the rites are "the church of Scotland".
Cheers
