South Africa / Help finding family
« on: Wednesday 26 August 09 08:50 BST (UK)  »
Hi
I was wondering if anyone can help us. We are trying to trace what happened to our great grandmother Jessie Mackay Grant-Dalton and her daughter Mary Jessie Young, born 1913 in Balerno, Edinburgh, Scotland. We know that they sailed to SA in 1938 and indicated that it was to be their permanent residence. I just can't find out anything more about them and don't know what to do next. Can anyne help point us in the right direction please.

Thanks

Yorkshire (West Riding) Lookup Requests / Grant-Dalton family
« on: Thursday 20 August 09 16:23 BST (UK)  »
Hi

We were wondering if anyone could help. We have just found out that our great grandmother, following the death of our great grandfather, married Major Eustace Foster Grant-Dalton in 1936 in Marlybone, London. We looked him up and found out that he is from a family who have Brodsworth Hall in Doncaster. We know that he went onto marry a Sylvia Grant-Dalton in 1959. We simply want to find when the marriage with our great grandmother ended and whether there are any clues to where she went.

Our great grandmother in 1936 was called Jessie Mackay Grant-Dalton (previous married name was Young and maiden name Georgeson). Born in 1892 in Dunbarton, Scotland.

We would be grateful for any help with this information.

Regards

Midlothian / Free church records
« on: Thursday 20 August 09 10:21 BST (UK)  »
Hi

As I've just discovered this site I though I might ask if anyone knows howe to find out records for the free church of scotland. We contacted edinburgh city council but they couldn't find it because it is probably in private church grounds. My great grandfather John Percy Adair Young died in Corstophine in 1934. We have even been up to Edinburgh to see the house he died in acording to his death certificate but we couldn't find out anything else about his actual burial.

Thanks and I hope someone can point us in the right direction

Regards

Midlothian / Mary Jessie Young
« on: Thursday 20 August 09 10:09 BST (UK)  »
I am trying to trace what happened to a great aunt called Mary Jessie Young born in Balero, Edinburgh in 1913. We only found out she existed when we started our family research. She would be the sister of our grandfather Donald Alexander Waugh Young. Her parents were John Percy Adair Young and Jessie Mackay Georgeson. We have searched deaths and marriages on both Scotlands people and Ancestry but there are no records. Could anyone advise us of what to do next please? Thanks
