James Marshall

[ryanh315]

Hi,

My 3x great grandfather James Marshall was born circa 1835 in Berwickshire, Scotland (according to the 1911 census). I have his marriage certificate to Jane DAVIDSON in 1857 which states that his father was William Marshall. Could anybody help me to find a baptism record for James or another record that shows his mother/father?

Thanks

Where did they get married?

What is his age in the 1861, 1871, 1881, 1891, 1901 and 1911 censuses?

What are the names of all his children in order of birth?

What were the names of his wife's parents?

What was William Marshall's occupation? And what was James' own occupation?
