I cannot find any birth or death record for a William McMath Manson in Fife.  Are you positive about the info you have on William?

Ah found it now.  I was misled by this:-

Quote
William McMath Manson - Born - 1906 - wemyss, Fife - Died - 1976 - Buckhaven

Mother's maiden name was McMath hence that being his second name.

What exactly do you wish to find out?  What are you already positive about apart from Donaldina marrying William Sturrock?

William's birth certificate is available on Scotland's People for downloading.  Cost is 6 credits.

For Donaldina you will need to order the certificate at a cost of £12.00 from Scotland's People

MANSON DONALDINA   F 1920   Ref:442/ 56   RD Name: Kirkcaldy

I'll see if William had any siblings.

If I go with Wemyss where William was born then it appears he had one sister called Georgina Craggs Sturrock born in 1911. Her record is also downloadable for 6 credits.

Craggs may well turn out to be the maiden name of her father's mother.

William and Georgina are in the 1911 census with their parents David and Jeanie.  Again this is something that you can view on Scotland's People for 6 credits.

Father was David Mitchell Sturrock born Dundee 1879. Mother was Jean(n)ie Lees McMath born 1877 in Dundee. They married in Dundee in 1901. David appears to have died in Wemyss in 1938 ( recorded simply as David Sturrock). Jeanie Sturrock or McMath died in Kirkcaldy in 1963 age 86. Georgina Craggs Sturrock married Robert Cunningham Henderson in 1931 and died in Kirkcaldy in 2003 age 92.

There's a marriage between a David Mitchell Sturrock and Jeanie L McMath in 1901 St Andrews Dundee and a marriage between a Donald Manson and Janet Alexander in 1903 Dysart
