Thank you to all those that helped. I didn't notice the majority of replays until now. 90% of them link so that's helped me out loads. Margaret Ellen Anderson Donaldson was born in Leitholm she was my Great Grandmother. How did you link a Mary Ann Donaldson to a marriage to Ralph A Young?? And MillMoor-how did you find the notices in the news?? Thanks

Berwickshire / Mary McPherson & John Donaldson Leitholm
« on: Monday 22 August 16 02:54 BST (UK)  »
Looking to see if anyone can help me in finding information on a John Donaldson who married a Mary McPherson in the Leitholm area in the 1800s. These were my great, great grandparents. All I know is that they are burried in Leitholm Cemetry and had a daughter called Mary Ellen Anderson Donaldson. I don't know if they had any other children or who they were related too. PLEASE HELP ME. Thank you in advance for all your help ;)

Yep, her mothers maiden name was Allen. In 1939 she would have only been 8 years old so Duncan and Emily are more than likely the locked names. Do you think that's her death or is there any other possibilities? Does it say if she had and children? Thank you I really appreciate the help you are giving me! Would really help if someone lived in the area at that time or knew the family personally. It's been driving me crazy not been able to find anything out until I was told about this site ;)

I believe they got married in 1949. Is there any information regarding Elsie? I know she was born in 1931 in Sunderland and moved to west riding shortly after birth. I have Duncan's death certificate which Elsie Dickinsin registered his death of a 14 Lincoln Road then when I've searched the name to the address it links to a Robert Dickinson presumably her husband and to an address of 25 Shakespeare gardens ls9 6ju. I can't find a marriage certificate at all for Elsie but she must have got married to have the Dickinson surname and there's a few Elsie Dickinsons listed in Leeds whether she has passed away or still alive I have no idea. Ideally the Electroll roll would say who was living in the address at the time Elsie was but there listing different families at those addresses now so I have no idea. Duncan was listed at time of death as living at 94 Cromwell heights in the flats. I'm not from Leeds so I have no idea of the areas etc

Yes to an Isaac Chapman. I get the impression she didn't have contact with her biological father and was raised by Duncan but that's only an assumption. Ryles was Duncan's first marriage before Emily. It's Duncan's marriage to Emily and the daughter Elsie I lack information for.

Elsie was born in 1931.
Her mother Emily died 1967 and her father Duncan died in 1969. All in west Riding York/Leeds. That's all I know.

Edward, Emily, Thomas, Stephen, Elsie, May and Aurther Allen. Emily's second marriage was to my Great Grandfather a Duncan Carmichael Yeoman. Im desperate to find a photo of Emily and Duncan. Any help would be hugely appreciated. Thanks x
