[Hopiee225]

Looking for information on john sturrock such as birth, death and parents name. I know that his wife name was Catharine Drummond (married November 1848 - Dundee) and they had a child named William Sturrock.

Hi and welcome to rootschat the best way to find out further information would be to register with
www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk ...You can buy credits for a small fee of £7.50 which will give you 30 credits   Getting a copy of the death certificate will use 5 credits and you can download the certificate which will give you his parents names if known

Possible death for a John Sturrock 1886 age 60 St Mary Dundee looks like a good match
There is also a death for a Catherine Sturrock other name Drummond 1902 age 77 St Mary Dundee

This was on Scotlandspeople ...John Sturrock age 60 death 1886 ref/282/2/39 St Mary Dundee

You wont get any death certificates on Ancestry you need to get the original record from Scotlands People unless someone has a copy attached to their tree
