When I was searching elsewhere I came across the details for a child born to them in 1962.  The birth certificate for this is also on Scotland's People.

I found records of the family travelling to Australia on the Find My Past website.  Mother, father and child.

I can tell you that they married in the district of Dalziel in Scotland.  The Ref. No. is 639/406.  That's Entry 406, Ref 639/.  You can buy the marriage certificate from Scotland's People and it costs £12.00.

This is the website for Scotland's People:-   https://www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk/

If you have not used them before you will need to register.

What information are you looking for?  Have either Lewis or Marion died?

Welcome to RootsChat  :D

Liverpool has six cemeteries and two crematoriums.  Link to the details below.

https://liverpool.gov.uk/births-marriage-deaths/deaths/cemeteries-and-crematoria-service/cemeteries-and-crematoria/

This link takes you to the contact page:-

https://liverpool.gov.uk/births-marriage-deaths/deaths/cemeteries-and-crematoria-service/contact-us/

Various options are listed one of which is Grave search enquiry. I would suggest that you contact them and ask if they can find the burial details of your great grandmother.  There may well be a fee for this.

The Lighter Side / Re: Writing a Will

Thanks for that Ray, I have bookmarked it for further investigation.

Hopefully I should never need to go into care but a good idea to get things in place should that happen.

Oh I see.  I don't recall anything about that when I did my LPA.  Probably too late now to check and amend it.

AND somewhere along the line we ensured that the house could NOT be sold to pay for possible care home costs.

How did you manage to do that Bumblebee?  I was under the impression that councils could sell your house even if it is in joint names of other family members.

I haven't checked what the current situation is with that.

Welcome to RootsChat  :D

Not sure if this will help but it may be worth exploring:-

https://www.familysearch.org/search/catalog/329778?availability=Family%20History%20Library

The link is to do with the below:-

Original wills, administrations and inventories for the Consistorial Court of the Archdeaconry of Cornwall, 1579-1859
