Parent's name left off death cert

[Davy MacLean]

Hi all,

Wondering why on this death cert the mother's name would hae been left off? having searched as best as I can, I can't find any name for her? Possible died in child birth hence why left off?

Peter Wade seems to be an enigma as well

[Neale1961]

It looks as if the informant (husband) didn’t know the name of his mother in law. He may never have met her.

[Neale1961]

According to the 1861 census, Susan was born in Ireland.
This looks like it is her before marriage in 1841

her brother Robert is also with her in 1851.

Says Ireland on some docs and Edinburgh in others that I've found, She also flips between the name Sara/Suzanna for some reason,

Meets an unpleasent ending

[Neale1961]

I don’t see Sara anywhere.
 It is Susan on the three census, on her marriage, on her children's baptisms, and on her death.
i think birth place on 1851 census is most likely the incorrect one.

Have you looked at the Catholic baptism records for her children, for godparents names?
have you looked at the Catholic baptism of her brother Robert Wade to see the parents names?

[Neale1961]

The 1855 birth registration for daughter Catherine, should give you more detailed information than on other births.
1855 was the first year of registration and is special in the content held on records.

Thanks Neale

[Davy MacLean]

Nothing showing on the 1855 birth for Susan as it's her husband My 4th great grandad) who registers the birth,

It would have been good if the document was legible as it would have at least given me a lead on where the family come from in Ireland

I would ask Scotlands People to provide a better quality scan. They usually respond positively.
