Thank you Josephine, I believe the James A Cran born in 1910 may be his father too! I've downloaded the relevant PDFs, thanks again to you both

Thanks Isobel, that confirms what i've found too which is great! I've managed back to 1800 on Annie's side now too. So chuffed

There is a marriage in 1942 in Banff between a James Cran and a Helen Minty. Helen Minty or Cran died in Banff in 2008 age 88. Possible death in Banff of a James Cran in 1988 age 77 ( which would tie with the 1910 birth) mmn Rutherford.

Glad to help, phcarter!

 

Although it seems sure, it's always a good idea to get the more recent documents, too, just to be certain you're tracing the right people.
