Handwriting Deciphering & Recognition / Re: What was Elizabeth's maiden name?

There's only a small window available for children.  They were married in March 1918 and Helen was born June 23 1921.  Lilias died at the beginning of July 1921.  Assuming a nine month pregnancy, any childrn would have had to be born between December 1918 and September 1920 (more likely June or July 1920).

Thanks Gadget.  There's no mention of Edington on her birth certificate that I received in the post this week.  Just plain Helen.  Father Adam - Hairdresser, Mother Lilias MacDonald nee Turnbull.

Meadowbank, I believe. The address on Helen's birth certificate is 14 Meadowbank Terrace.

No, I'm trying to find out whether Adam MacDonald and Lilias Maud Turnbull had any other children apart from their daughter Helen born 1921. Lilias died shortly after the birth of Helen in 1921.  They married in 1918.

Thank you everyone.

Is there a way to search Scotlands People for births by mother's maiden name and surname?

Here's a snip from a marriage certificate.  Adam Macdonald married Lilias Turnbull in 1918.
What was Adam's mother's maiden name?  It looks like Tyne but I'm not 100% sure.

Thanks!

My outstanding birth and death were despatched on July 31. The death arrived yesterday, the birth hasn't yet.

Guess which one I'm sweating on?  ;D
