Hi Monica,

                how on earth did you find that!!!Well done.

If they married in a solicitor's office do you think it could be something to do with him being an American sailor--special licence?.

Regards,
MM

Hello all,

               thanks for all your great replies--fantastic!

Monica--re Warrant of Sherriff Substitute posts cleared a few things up for me as it also has info on irregular marriages and I have a few of them in my family.

Sandgrounder1-thanks for link-great photo.

harrywrag-thanks for that link,I see that a writer lived at that number as Monica posted.

A massive bonus for me was typing in Park Drive South and finding my auntx3 Ann Souter listed as proprietor of no 70.It also (I think)gives her current address which is Auchenhalrig(please somebody correct me if i'm wrong).

Thanks again Rootschatters

 Auchalrig Kilmacolm Renfrewshire--what a mouthful!!!. Is there anything about this place on the board.

Could it now be known as Auchenalrig?

There is a property of that name on Barclaven Road in Kilmacolm PA13 4QD. All the properties there seem to have names rather than numbers.
