Temperance Leitch

[Forfarian]

William Williams, aged 38, married my relative Isabella Masson or Wilson in Elgin, Moray in 1867, and died in Lasswade, Midlothian, in 1889.

Both his marriage certificate and his death certificate give the names of his parents as William Williams, farm overseer/farm servant, and Temperance Williams, maiden surname Leitch.

There's a William Williams, parents William and Temperance, of Goblin Combe, Somerset, baptised on 31 May 1829 at Wrington, Somerset, who looks a pretty good fit.

Is there any way of verifying his mother's maiden surname, for example a marriage record?

Excellent, thank you. I'd say that was the right parentage for William, then?

Out of curiosity, where did you access the marriage?
