John Robert James Rennie and Mary Guthrie McFarlane
« on: Saturday 13 July 19 19:05 BST (UK) »
Hello I am looking to find any information on this couple who emigrated to Canada from Scotland. I realise I may well be straying close to folks who are still alive and will  remove this posting if necessary.  John Rennie and Mary McFarlane married on 31 July 1954 in Cardross Dunbartonshire.  Any information will be gratefully received.  isk
