Marriage certificate

[Kloumann]

On 1911 census, Gorbals, Donald is 52 & Grace, 56

27 years married, 5 children, all living

puts marriage same year as Angus born, 1883/4

[CaroleW]

There is a death for Grace Hood aged 70 in 1925 - Gorbals

Son Neil died 1953

Nothing for Donald??

[CaroleW]

Might be worth looking at the 1918 death - Gorbals for Donald Head in case it's a typo

[Annette7]

Grace is not the Grace Hood died 1925 Gorbals.

Can't see any of the childrens births registered in name of Hood.

Very odd.

The Donald Head died 1918 Gorbals is the right man - likewise death of Grace is as Grace Head in 1928 Gorbals.   Informant for both is son Neil.

Death certificates show Donald Head was son of George Head, Carter and Christina McGuinness and Grace was daughter of Robert Anderson, Shepherd and Mary Hinch**wood (hard to read).

The Grace Hood in 1925 is also Grace Paterson.

Son Angus died 1917, WW1

Wonder why the change from Head to Hood

Still can't find a Head/Anderson marriage on SP

[Annette7]

Mary and Neil's births are registered as Head - both state parents as Donald Head and Grace Anderson and shown as married 26/6/1883 Peebles on both.   I can't find a marriage.
