Scotland / Great Great Grandparents Samuel Brady / Jane Carroll DC Cannot Find
« on: Tuesday 12 March 24 19:24 GMT (UK)  »
Hello
Been trying to find DC for my maternal Great Great Grandparents.

Information I have is as follows:

Deceased prior to 1899 from Daughters Marriage Certificate.
Names Samuel Brady Birth approximately 1842 as listed in 1881 Census as aged 39 Carluke Lanak
Jane Carroll Birth approximately 1850 as listed in 1881 Census as aged 31 Carluke Lanak
They seem to have married prior to 1876/77 as my great grandmother was born that year.

Have tried Scotland's People with various name variants and locations other than Glasgow but no luck so far.

Hope someone can help me break this brickwall...
Regards
