Stewart Thomas Swan born 25th January 1958 in Harthill, Lanarkshire
« on: Sunday 21 August 22 22:00 BST (UK) »
We'd like to learn more about Stewart Thomas Swan who was born at 10 Greenrigg Cottages, Harthill, Lanarkshire on 25th January 1958.
His birth certificate states that his father was Stewart Swan, a coal miner (boiler?) and his mother was Elizabeth McNeil Swan née Moody. Stewart and Elizabeth married on 20th March 1948 at Eastfield.
Can we learn more about Stewart Jr's parents, siblings and his early life?
Stewart died in May 2022 and was married four times, all in Scotland, but we have no dates for these marriages.
Thanks for any help.
Richard

There are only 4 likely marriages on Scotlandspeople (1985-2016) as the name combination  Stewart Thomas Swan is not a common one. Have you looked at those?

No. I don;t have access to Scotland's People.
The wives were 1. Linda (we think that was her name and it would have been in the late 1970s). 2. Sill alive - married in mid 1980s. 3. Lorraine (now deceased) about 1993. 4. Still alive - married about 2015.
Thanks

As any siblings or ex wives of Stewart are likely to be still living we cannot discuss or name them.  As suggested Scotlands people is the place you should be looking.

You just need to register for the site, you will have to pay for any certificates

Understood. I edited my previous post to show that wives 2 and 4 are still alive and removed their names..
Wife # 3 Lorraine died about December 2013. We know virtually nothing about Wife # 1.
Both of Stewart's parents died by the time Stewart was in his early 20s, so early 1980s.
Can we get any information about Stewart Swan (Senior) and Elizabeth McNeil Moody?
Thank you
Richard

Thank you scotmum.
"I believe Stewart had a sister who I think was called Moira who - I’ve been told - was one of the first in Scotland to have a liver transplant when she was around 19 years old and unfortunately it wasn’t successful and she later died."
Moira would have been born in the 1950s and died about 1975. I am surprised that I can't find anything with a "google" search.

Thanks very much Rosinish.
I have logged into ScotlandsPeople and managed to find many useful records without ordering the certificate.
I have added that information to my tree on An****ry.
