An old post but wondering if anyone is still interested in Meeks, Stirlingshire?

I've discovered tonight, on one of my own DCs (Death Certs.) this info. as there are 3 entries on DCs...

Death of James Barbour 21 Feb 1962 - 68 yrs -  Motor Lorry Driver (Retired) - 59 Windsor Ave, Falkirk...
Married to 1 - Helen Allan Meek
Married to 2 - Mary Allan Meek

Death registered by John F (Wright?) (difficult to read) - Friend - 2 Windsor Gdns, Falkirk

The above I'm assuming to have been sisters although I don't know?

I can forward the DC to anyone interested if you copy/paste link to this page stating you're interested in the DC I have.

Skoosh,

I have no connection to the names I posted, they were extra entries on a DC of my own & thought I'd post for anyone with an interest which I can pass on.

Thanks Annie, I think the Denny Meek's are probably from Old Monkland whose origin was Bathgate? & those in Falkirk are mebbes of the same origin as the Gaelic scholar Prof' Donald Hector Meek who has a Tiree website and whose Meek's originate in Whitburn/Bathgate also, 18th century.

Thanks for this, another stone to the cairn!  ;D
