Stevenson family

[Hogwartsgirl]

The Arthur Stevenson has a mother named Mary Stevenson

Does it have her maiden name, or is she Mary Stevenson?
Here’s how I got to the conclusions, Arthur’s obituary names a brother William and his marriage certificate has really odd writing
Where have you got a brother William for him?

I meant what maiden name is on the Newington birth cert?

Second marriage?:

STEVENSON Mary to RAMSAY Joseph 1948 644/14 37 Partick

Or,

STEVENSON Mary to RAMSAY George 1938 685/4 651 St Giles

STEVENSON Arthur MCKENZIE to Jessie Kirkwood 1942 685/6 59 Newington

Here’s the Mary and George Ramsay, and it lists her as a spinster.  It’s why I’m literally hoping someone sees the names and goes ‘aha! I have them in my tree! Here’s the scoop!’ Because I’m so confused now. I just can’t find anything

I’m going by memory on this one because it was the first one I bought and discounted. It was just listed as Mary, no last name, Arthur Stevenson and no father. I’m going to find that certificate again though and have another look.

I read your question wrong lol, she was listed as Mary Stevenson. And the father as Reginald Hollingsworth

When our Scottish experts get out of their warm beds you should get some answers. 

Meanwhile, someone may likely tell you to remove the certs. I believe you can put up sections, but not the whole cert.

As an aside, Arthur wouldn’t be the first to make up a father for a marriage, if his mother was unwed when he was born.

Thank you. I’m just getting so frustrated. I’ve been working on my family tree for about 4 years now and this side of the family is just impossible.

Hogwartsgirl, you said you viewed both birth certificates. On Ancestry, Arthur's birthdate is given as 11th December 1921. Were neither of them born on that date?
