Welcome to the boards.

If they lived in Scotland you will need to purchase credits for Scotlandspeople website to find any information about children etc.

I think you can search the site for free but need credits to be able to look at any results.

Thank you , I didn't know about Henry and will look into him. I found out she left the work house to go into service in Falkland fife , and have her marriage to George Walker in 1920 . Looks like I need to get credits for Scotlands people :-(

Shirley~I,m getting the hang of it

Shirley~I,m getting the hang of it Report 11 Mar 2017 13:43

Yes you will need Scotlands People and for 1920 you have to buy the cert through them as it's not viewable online

You can also look for deaths for them and possibly children


Have you looked in members trees to see if anyone has the family in their tree

So looks like the birth wasn't reg but they baptised him in 1892 , maybe he was baptised and then passed away . No death is reg either

Thank you so much for spending so much time researching this for me , I have looked into to Henry as well and like you cant find birth registration or death . Spent all day going through workhouse admissions etc looking for any information and just got more confused with the variations of their names .It took me away from finding Sarah and her husband lol x
