Thanks Gail. :)

There are 5 William Buchanan on SP born 1900 and 9 born 1877 in Lanarkshire.
Have fun and don't spend too much.

Can you narrow it down?

Dave.

Thankyou for your answer.
I looked up SP, for my Grandfather's birth details, I found it and copied the birth cert. I also looked up for my Greatgrandfather, but too many to view, so I looked up the marriage details, found it, then I copied that.
Greatgrandmothers name I thought was Margaret McNee, but was Maggie McNee on grandfather birth cert and marriage cert.

All I have to do now is try to read the writing on the marr cert.

Thanks gail

 ???

I have a question.

I have the Marr Cert,  but I am unable to read some of the cert, is there  any way that I could email it there and if somebody could try and unscramble it for me.

Thanks gail

You can post cropped portions of the document here and we can try and help.  Don't post the full document or the copyright ed will give you a ticking off ;D

Hi Just found your posts and wondering if you have any more details on Maggie McNee as I have a Maggie or Margaret daughter of George and Janet and age 3 months in the 1881 census.  Could this be the same Maggie?

Hi Gailmary,

Just looked on 1881 census and at 257 South Wellington St, Glasgow, there is

William Buchanan 35 b 1846 Hamilton, Lanarkshire - Tobacco Spinner
Jane Buchanan 31 b 1850 Glasgow Lanarkshire - Wife
Elizabeth Buchanan 6 b 1875 Glasgow Lanarkshire
William Buchanan 4 b 1877 Glasgow Lanarkshire
Christina Buchanan 2 b 1879 Glasgow Lanarkshire

Could this young William be your Great Grandfather?
