Janice
Just thought I would let you know that George was not mine further investigation shows me I have given James Douglas the wrong wife he did not Marry Elizabeth Kinnad juts downloaded that Marriage and that James Douglases father was George and mine was Robert so it just goes to show what a new search can throw up I suspect my James Douglas might have married Glasgow where his kids were born as the original kids are the right one so although the wrong info its drawn my attention to the fact I have made a BIG blunder thanks

1881 census

Family living at 58 Roslea Drive
   Barony, Glasgow

James Douglas age 40 born Drysedale, Dumfries
Elizabeth age 38 born Drysedale
Mary S age 5 born Glasgow
Elizabeth age 3 born Glasgow
Maggie age 10 months born Glasgow

The childrens birth certs will have details of parent's marriage. (scotlandspeople site)
If they married in Scotland you will also be able to download their marriage cert. this in turn will give you both sets of parents names.
