Stirlingshire / Re: Fallin colliery

I have a cousin who is the grandson of Eleanor Ryan and he is interested in his family tree.
He is hopeless with computers so I am trying to help him.
I have told him about you (Kathy) but as yet I have been unable to fit you into the tree.
Can you give me a clue.

yes. That looks like it.

On second thoughts, it's not.

Thank you for that but I'm sure that in the past I was able to use an option that was 'Show Posts Started By'

Perthshire / Adopted or not Adopted

Have a child in my tree that was born out of wedlock in 1922.
When the child was three or four years on, the mother got married.
Now family tradition says that the child was adopted by the mothers husband and was thereafter known by the new fathers surname.
Yet, the child's birth certificate is openly available for public viewing on Scotland's People.
I thought that when a child was adopted, their birth certificate was withdrawn from the public domain.
Is it likely that the child was not legally adopted and just simply took the fathers surname is its own. ?

Sorry, I made a mistake with the year of marriage between Jane Stevenson and Andrew Hyslop.
It should have read 1896 and not 1996
Can you say whether or not they are your direct ancestors.
Also.
What is the relationship between you and Peter Stevenson and Victoria Swan and do yo have any dates for them

Regards.
Robert
