Hi all ,

George Duthie gives birthplace as Tarves Aberdeenshire on 1881 Census.
From looking at the Census in 1841/1851 parents maybe Peter Duthie and Christian Harvey , as Isabel says you would need to look at the marriage certificate for further info.
Peter died in 1841(Will on SP) , Christian died 1871.

Added - George may have been married before -

Hi all

Many thanks for your help.  You have given me a couple of leads I did not previously have.  Now just have difficulty with George's parents.  But I will plow on with Scotlands People.

All the very best

Hi Bruce, Is that offer still available please re Muthill, Perthshire births?
My family history states James Erskine (blacksmith) married Ann Ferguson 1833 Muthill Perthshire Scot and they had children born in 1833 Christina; 1835 Ann; 1837 Martha & 1840 Beatrice.  Can you confirm these children for me please.  The family came to Aus in 1855 on "Prince of the Seas", however Beatrice does not appear to be with them.   Hope you can help.  Thank you kindly, Julie.
