Can you help me narrow down possible birth Certs for Robert

Ryan

From the 1891 census info. posted earlier he was born 1890, have you looked at the census to find out where he was born to narrow down your search?

Meanwhile, I've had a look for births on scotlandspeople, if he was born Dundee, Angus here's a possible;

MCINTOSH ROBERT 1890
282/1 188 St Peter (Angus)

Annie
South Uist, Inverness-shire, Scotland:- Bowie, Campbell, Cumming, Currie

Ireland:- Cullen, Flannigan (Derry), Donahoe/Donaghue (variants) (Cork), McCrate (Tipperary), Mellon, Tol(l)and (Donegal & Tyrone)

Newcastle-on-Tyne/Durham (Northumberland):- Harrison, Jude, Kemp, Lunn, Mellon, Robson, Stirling

Kettering, Northampton:- MacKinnon

Canada:- Callaghan, Cumming, MacPhee

Another step forward....... Had another go at Helen MCArthur. Would love to crack her but maybe  she could have died or remarried again.  ??? Certainly elusive.

Wonder if parents or sibling obits would mention her  ???

There was 2 brothers

Alexander died in 1962 in Windsor , and William died in 1947 detrioit

There was newspaper cutting obit for Alexander which was in easily found on newspaper archive and I think a fellow roots chatter found the murder news cutting about William.
