[Ray778]

Evening Guys

I am really struggling with this one. I have been given some information from my parent with names and dates but they are not sure how they connect and I have been searching but have had no joy.

These are what i have been given and any help would be grateful.

www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk is the main site for info re BMD.  Scottish BMD certs give details of mother plus her maiden name & for the period you mention you can download them

It is a pay per view only by purchase of credits - not a subscription site

Have you looked for the people you mention on censuses? 

[CaroleW]

No marriage in 1905 for the people you mention.  An Alexander Halli...... Hunter married an Annie Campbell Gordon

No Hunter/Munro marriage in 1902

No birth for an Alexander Easton Hunter in Scotland or England

The Hunter/Stenhouse marriage in 1875 is available on Scotlands People

Where did your parent get the info from and how are the names connected to your FH?

Alexander Easton Hunter was I think the son of William Hunter and Sarah Stenhouse. His birth is showing in New Monkland, Lanarkshire in 1876.

I suspect that in 1881 the family are living in New Monkland

William Hunter 28 b Falkirk
Sarah Hunter 27 b East Lothian
Alexander 4
Celia 1 probably Cecilia
William 1 mo

Sarah Stenhouse Hunter died 1 June 1885 of bronchitis in Bathgate. SP index gives her mother's maiden name as Wilson. It looks like William remarried.

I think Alexander Easton Hunter married Annie McPheat  in New Monkland in 1897, not 1906. ( An Ancestry tree has the marriage cert. attached).

From the details posted by William above, looks like a mining family. Alexander's birth place is showing specifically as West Longrigg in 1881 (the birth cert will let you confirm full details). Just some further details here https://canmore.org.uk/site/85465/west-longrigg

Yes - they're in Bathgate in 1901 with children William and Annie, and sister in law Jeannie McPheat
