cant find birth certificates
« on: Sunday 10 February 13 17:42 GMT (UK) »
I cant find either of my gt gt grandparents birth cert. Marion Brown born about 1846, James Easton born about 1841. I have them on census returns.  I have their wedding cert 31-12-63 in kilmarnock, also their death cert. James in 1871 and Marion in 1916.  Can anyone give me an idea where im going wrong please?

•Registration of Births, Marriages and Deaths began in Scotland on 1st January 1855.

You would have to hope for a baptism .

Thanks for that, thought there would be some sort of record in the OPR.  Not sure whats next.  Claire I found that one but its not her, wedding cert says her parents are David and Jane Ross.  Thank you
