Maybe for Elizabeth but you need the marriage certificate or death certificate to confirm the names of her parents.

Hmmm, well, that David Renton in Milton in 1911 is not with any Marshalls or Golds.

There were 44155 people on the 1911 census, living in Milton. Too many to trawl through without some way to narrow it down.

That looks a good possibility AG. The area is not far from where the family are in 1901. Perhaps he's with his mother's family.

From what you've found, RG, it appears that David wasn't with the rest of the family in 1911.

This one doesn't seem to be part of a household of Rentons in 1911 - maybe him lodging somewhere??

I wish it was possible to search or order the results by reference number.

Well found ArgyllGran. That's just David and Christina unaccounted for. Perhaps they too went to America.
