Yes thanks. Further to the 1841 Census are the McFeggins related to the Meldrums?

Another query, I have found a marriage between William Meldrum & Catherine McGregor 1841, Dunfernlime does it show parents names?

It's unlikely - What you normally get priot to 1855 is the name of the bride and groom only. Occasionally the father's name is given. What would show the parents name in Scotland is the death cert - if after 1855.

Have bought some credits from scotlandspeople, and tried to look at the image, but it tells me to download plug-in java, still cannot get to see image.

Will send a query to them later today, to try & figure out why I can't view.

I have found a marriage of James Meldrum (possible William's son) & Catherine Donaldson 1869, on the 1881 Census they have children named James D and Helen plus other children, I am wondering if this is a grandson of James Meldrum & Helen Watson.

It looks like I will have trouble finding out if this is indeed is descendants.
