Hi all

I am looking for Euphemia Paterson, She was born around 1841. According to the 1891 census in New Monkland, Lanark.

31/12/1861 She married William Speirs in Bothwell, Lanark.

I am looking for when she was born and any Parents etc.

Thanx all

Hi Laura,    In 1861 Index, Euphemia was living in Blantyre, age 19 born New Monklands,  no other family with her.
I noted her children in IGI, and going by the naming pattern in Scotland of that time, her father should be Walter and her mother Agnes.
I found a Walter and Agnes in 1861 index, living in Old Monklands.
Walter Paterson age 40  born Kincardine, Perth
Agnes age 43 birn Kilsyth, Stirling
Christina age 18 born Airdrie
David age 10 born Airdrie

Euphemia's marriage cert will confirm her parents' names

Merry Christmas :D
