I am trying to find information, on a Margaret Smith, b.1902 Stirlingshire Dunipace, I understand she married a John Higgins Mac, or McNairn no date or place, I believe they had a dau. abt 1924, b. Old Monkland. I have trawled Scotlands people and can not find a marriage Any help greatly appreciated and thanked for in advance. Thank you.

     Regarding the daughter born in 1924 at Old Monkland, my 79 year old brain spies a Jane Bell McNairn, born 1924 at Old Monkland.      I just wonder if you have an ancestor in this line with the name Bell?

Hi Doddsie4,
The 1924 dau, I saw her on scot/people today but my card would not work. I was going to buy in the hope it was correct and would get the parents marriage, which I now  have thanks to you. Your 79 yr.old head obviously works better than mine. The 1924 looks very much like it must be correct as I see from the marriage cert. that John`s mother`s maiden name is Bell. So pretty much sure it will be. I will get the cert. and look at these others you so kindly pointed me in the direction of. I will check them out. Once again sir, thank you so much.
