I am trying to find some info on Andrew Irvine(shoe maker) who married Christina or Christian Sinclair on 11th July 1813 in Orphir.  They had the following children Mary b.1814, James b.1815, Cecilia b.1817 and Helen b.1819. Cecilia married Andrew Cunning 1850 and died 24 Nov 1861 aged 42 in Dunfermline, Fife.  I would appreciate any help as I am holiday for the next 2 weeks in Orkney and if I could be pointed in the right direction for more info, this would make my holiday. ;)

I am trying to find out which regiment my grandfather, Matthew Taylor served with.  He was born 30/03/1885 in Glasgow and died 20/02/1956.  I have a photogragh of him in his uniform and it looks as if he was in a mounted regiment local to Glasgow.  Any suggestions please on how I can get this info.

Fife / John Cumming
« on: Monday 01 December 08 19:08 GMT (UK)  »
I am trying to trace marriage of John Cumming.  His son Alexander was married  to Mary Cooper 25/12/1925 in Kelty but although I have the marriage certificate I cannot make out the name of John's wife.  I think her first name is Ina or Isa but her surname is not clear and John Cumming was stated as deceased on the cert.
