Please be aware that the records shown from the IGI may be the only information available on the originals at Scotlandspeople. Statutory registration began in 1855 in Scotland. Prior to that events were recorded in the OPRs. The detail recorded varied from parish to parish and often marriage entries give no further information. Sometimes they will give the names of the fathers of the bride and groom.

All these records can be downloaded at Scotlandspeople,a pay per view site.Use the spelling from the records given on this site,or tick the variation boxes beneath name entered. Especially helpful would be the marriage ones,and 1855 +death ones.

Happy Hunting

Too many John Andersons to be able to pick out the 'right' one.

I'd been looking for Haddow, based on the text of the posting! Didn't see the alternative surname in the title - time to pack in..........lol!
