McMillan's of Miramar
« on: Wednesday 21 July 21 00:41 BST (UK) »
I am after the parents names without having to buy the wedding certificate. In a 1938 wedding photo the parents are described as Mr and Mrs Alex. McMillan of Miramar. The son getting married was John Alexander McMillan. Using other sources could folks find more details of Alex and Wife of Miramar  please.

Could this be the marriage of your Alexander & Mary in 1906?

Thank you. Should I start another post as to whether the John Alexander McMillan hopefully living with Williamina Patricia McMillan nee Kilner up till their divorce in 1958 is the same one or a different J.A.M?

There was a previous divorce, and John Alexander with Willamina is an engineer
