Charles Martinus Edlefsen (b 1891 in Siam) came to scotland from Siam, joined the Black Watch (1914) and married a Scotswoman Catherine Honeyman in 1915.   How did he manage this;     did he become a Brit/Scot.   Did his marriage entitle him him Brit status??   How do we find more??????

I have a Charles M Edlefsen in my family tree.   He was b1891, served with 2 BW and married Catherine Honeyman in Perth in 1915.   He apparently moved to Broughty Ferry and died in Dundee Royal Infirmary in 1934.

Am trying to trace his parents Charles(?) and Elizabeth without much luck.   Father died pre 1915.

Where does the surname Edlefsen come from ???

Yes I have all mentioned.    My problem is going further back as there is another SH born in 1896 who married a William Watson.   This is what puts the parents etc of my Sarah in doubt.

Do I have the correct SH?  Married William Davy (b1796) on Nov 24 1817 in Addingham.   

Mother:  Mary Breare (b1773, Greenbow Hill, Yorks)???
Father :  Richard Holdsworth (b1773, Addingham, Yorks)???

Hi

have hit a wall re research on the above.   Married Nov 18 1680 (Crail) and cannot get any further back on dates of birth, parents etc.   Am ok from 1680 onwards.

You are all amazing!!    I have spent days trying to find Helon.    Why would he add Edward as his first name?   He was registered at birth as Helon with no trace of Edward

many thanks to you all

Looking for any info on above who married a Henry Paterson in 1833 in Peebles. They had 10 children some born in Stow, Midlothian and some in Melrose. I believe she was born around 1812 in Peebles but can find no trace of her birth or Death. I do know that Henry died in Kittyfield, Melrose in 1877
