Well done! I cant find Alexanders death anywhere! Where did you manage to find it so that I can look it up and see the death cert. Where in Scotland did he die? I was only searching Renfrew.

Read your post again, I see that he died in Greenock. I cant get to show up on scotlands people. Is that where you found it?

This could be Alexander Senior. Although it would mean his fathers name was George Ross.

Someone has found a record of a death for an Alexander Ross, married to Isabella McDonald. Death recorded as 1865 and he was age 38, a carpenter and died in Greenock, Renfrewshire.

I cant find this record, can anyone find it and tell me where to look?

i must be doing something wrong this evening, i cant even find the 1841 census that is shown on this thread.

Info with that much detail re Alex's death can only come from a d.rego on SP, I'ld say.

what site is it that the death cert has been found for alexander ross in 1865 Greenock, is it scotlands people as I cant get it to show up.

This is the only one on scotlandspeople showing for 1865.
