Ayrshire / Widowed mother
« on: Monday 15 October 18 23:40 BST (UK)  »
 My mother was born to my grandmother 3 years after the death of her husband. Birth certificate
 did not say illegitimate. In the space for mother, father, date of marriage etc it gives dead husband
 details including date of his death and states mother is a widow. Is this normal or was it an over
zealous registrar..

Ayrshire / Farm Service in Darvel
« on: Monday 24 August 15 22:32 BST (UK)  »
Hi
   Looking for help re my grandmother Annie Haire born 1 July 1891 in Irvine. Have her in 1901
   census in Kyleswell Street, Kilwinning and 1911 census in South Crescent, Saltcoats as
   domestic servant in large seafront house. Trying to find her possibly in farm service in Darvel.

   Led to believe she worked from around 14 years old in farm belonging to Alexander Fleming
   or his brother. How can I find her from 1904 till 1911?

Ayrshire / Natural or lawful birth record
« on: Saturday 07 February 15 23:01 GMT (UK)  »
        I've found a female birth entry saying natural daughter of the father, no
        mother mentioned. Other births on same document say lawful daughter,
        is there a difference? Is the natural one illegitimate?
