Robert Robison
« on: Tuesday 31 January 23 12:33 GMT (UK) »
Have 1858 Dumfries marriage cert for Robert Robison 26 and Jane Beck 29.
Roberts parents are shown as Robert Robison and Mary ?
Unable to decypher mother's name, may be Harrison or Morrison.Any help would be appreciated as this is preventing completion of a seven generation fan chart.

Do you have them on the 1861 census showing his birthplace? 

Have you looked for his birth on Scotlands People as it will show mothers maiden name?  If he died in Scotland his death cert will show parents details

Have you looked for parents marriage on Scotlands People?

If all else fails - scan the bit with her name on it & post it here

Post says father was Robert & mother was Mary

Although marriage was in Dumfries - we don't know whether he was born there or elsewhere
