marriage of Thomas Reid to Amy ,,?
« on: Thursday 22 March 12 07:33 GMT (UK) »
Hi
   I have on the 1901 UK census Thomas Reid age 43 b. Scotland
It shows his wife as Amy age 36.
I cannot find a marriage for them in UK so perhaps they married in Scotland.
Need help to find this marriage please and to find Amy's maiden name.

thanks....bigjon

Scotland is part of the UK.

However if you are using what Ancestry misleadingly describes as a UK marriage index, be aware that this index covers only England and Wales. It is mirrored from http://freebmd.rootsweb.com/cgi/search.pl
Never trust anything you find online (especially submitted trees and transcriptions on Ancestry, MyHeritage, FindMyPast and other commercial web sites) unless it's an image of an original document - and even then be wary because errors can and do occur.
