Marriage look up please for
« on: Saturday 08 May 21 07:58 BST (UK) »
Robert Henry Priscott born 1877 Bristol Gloucestershire, in 1901 he is still single living at home with his parents Matthew and Lucy Priscott. By 1911 he is married with 2 children.  His wife is called Jessie Stnithers Priscott born 1878 in Lanarkshire Airdrie.

I cannot find a marriage in England so am wondering if the marriage took place in Scotland.   The 2 children are called Matthew James born 1906 and Margaret born 1906, both born in Bristol. I also am having problems finding their birth reg on the GRO site which would of given me the mother's maiden name.

Any help would be appreciated.

If you purchase the Scottish marriage record, as found by rosie99, it should provide more details than an English one of the time would, and at a very reasonable cost .

As you mentioned an Airdrie birth in 1878 ( not seeing it at moment)\ here is a possibility for the family in 1881 census (from free LDS transcription):

Dwelling: 94 & 96 Hallcraig St

James
CONNELL
Head
M
40
M
Flesher
Eaglesham, Lanark, Scotland

Maggy
CONNELL
Wife
M
30
F
Airdrie, Lanark, Scotland


Mary M.
CONNELL
Daur
5
F
Airdrie, Lanark, Scotland


Jessie S.
CONNELL
Daur
3
F
Airdrie, Lanark, Scotland


Maggie
CONNELL
Daur
6 M
F
Airdrie, Lanark, Scotland

So, father born Eaglesham, rest born Airdrie.

Ok, looks like Jessie was born as Janet (Jessie being a known Scottish variation):

CONNELL
JANET STRUTHERS
F
1877
651/1 488
Airdrie or New Monkland

Snap, just found the 1881/1891/and 1901 census for Jessie on FindMyPast. Looks like she was a Governess in Newton Abbot in 1901 guess that was where they met.
