Hello
I need help with a surname from a marriage certificate for David Beveridge Kerr and Margaret Cuthbert in 1861 Calton/Glasgow - cannot read Margarets mothers maiden name - Ann......
Have found Anns death certificate - Ann Ferguson died 1884 - also have same maiden name but I cannot read it.
What can I do.

Have located Margarets death certificate but parents names are recorded incorrectly by daughter of Margaret - she lists Ann first husband as the maiden name and incorrectly lists margarets fathers Christian name too.

Lanarkshire / Help 1851 census. Elizabeth Taker/John Vance
« on: Friday 13 March 09 21:53 GMT (UK)  »
Hi There
Have a 1851 Scottish Census
Head  John Vance age 52 Born Ireland Parish No 622 Barony Lanarkshire
address: 13 Dixon Square Main street Finnse
Occupation: Handloom Weaver
John leaves in 1861 as an Enrolled pensioer Guard to Western Australia taking one child with him.

Daughter Mary maries John Paterson in 1861 and stays in Scotland.

But am really interested in niece : Elizabeth (Taker) aged 13. Born Ireland.    Can someone please decipher her name.  Could it read something else.

Have not been able to find Richardson Vance either in the 1861 Census although in 1899 I think I find his death in Yorkshire.  It could be him at the school of musketry in 1871? but then where is his wife Ellen/Helen?

Cannot locate what happens to William aged 17 either.
