Years ago (1990's) I ordered directly from the GRO in Scotland a extract of an entry in an OPR. I cannot remember how I got the details to order the correct entry. May have been via IGI or a familysearch film.
Anyway I wanted today to download an updated version as well as find the reference details for the entry that I have. But 1. It is not showing on Scotlandspeople at all no matter wildcards, searching for time frame with no mention of any names etc. Have tired even up to 1854 as well as in Civil Registration time frame but no luck. I also cannot locate the entry any more via familysearch and as they no longer have the old IGI I cannot check references there either.
In fact with my searches I have found NO marriage entries for the Cavers area of Roxburgh showing for the time period of 1836, and yet there is a couple showing via familysearch for that time period. (talking about other couples in this case)
I have attached a copy of the old certificate I got years ago so as to give you some idea of what I am talking about. The information much be there somewhere. BTW also checked the Catholic records as well with no results.
Marriage was: Cavers Roxburgh, Nov 13th 1836
To proclamation of James Miller, Northhouse in this parish and Euphemia Wintrop Hawick Sheil Tollbar, in the parish of Lauder.
Any ideas on where to actually find this entry for my referencing purposes would be greatly appreciated. Or has anyone had any luck in contacting Scotlandspeople re this type of situation previously.
thanks Ailsa
