COMPLETE : William Crighton Brown marriage
« on: Friday 15 May 09 15:22 BST (UK) »
hi...is there anyone can help me find a marriage between William Crighton Brown (born 1852ish in Aberdeen, son of John Brown and Elizabeth Cullen)...and a 'Margaret'????, possibly in Aberdeen Scotland....WCB was on Aberdeen census of 1881 at home and unmarried...........he came down to Woolwich soon after and turns up on London census 1901 as married to 'margaret' from Scotland....so he may have been married in Scotland or England...thanks
Cheers

Hi Sean,

William married Maggie S. Coutts on the 3rd October 1882 at George Street, Aberdeen. She was the daughter of William Coutts and Jessie Simpson. Witnesses were Francis Reid and Alexander Jack.

William just uses his middle initial, but he was 30 and an engine fitter. Parents were John Brown and Elizabeth Cullen (who was deceased). Maggie was 26.

Thats interesting....thanks Melanie

As my William has the name 'Crighton' as a middle name I am sure there is a previous family connection somewhere, maybe with one of his parents ( John Brown and Elizabeth Cullen) and the 'Crighton' family.
