there's one on the census which it will allow me to access, do not know the names yet but if i could piece together the martin mcglachie part they might be the next step, there's a match in the statuatory death section, old parish births, 2 in old parish deaths, and 2 in catholic baptisms. however when i click to view these records it takes me back to home search screen, it would be interesting to see what these other records could be,

You will need to contact SP if you are having difficulty accessing.

i have now sorted the problem went thru internet exp instead of the usual firfox and it has allowed me to open them, doesn't give me any better info at the moment but it may help down the line

they are both the same for robert martin mcgill, father david mcgill, so dead end

Any of these names look familiar?

There are a couple that may fit in the 1894 scottish census but with differing variations of the surname again, do you want me to post those (I don't want to waste anyones time!)

I'll check now, sorry about the incorrect one.

Hi Helen,

Nothing for a Martin anywhere...I have only used the search surname of M*chie so it should have returned a few results but nothing for a Martin.

No idea on his mother;s name?

Emma

Not any help I know! When you first posted I looked on Ancestry for various combinations of the surname McGlachie in Ayrshire with no success. The fact that his father's christian name is Martin, I wondered if the family may have originated from Ireland so I tried looking for a Martin with the birthplace Ireland with no success. If you think of the surname McGlackie with an Irish accent there are several possibilities. I tried search Ancestry just using McGl* with no success. I am wondering if your ancestor just thought that he was born in Ayrshire but was born elsewhere and raised in Ayrshire.

Sorry I can't be more help.

I'd agree rootgatherer, I found a few census returns but they suggested Ireland, it's hard with a name that peopel I guess wrote as they heard it!

thank you everyone for taking to time to have a look, i thought it was just me being a novice which was why i was having so much trouble trying to piece this together but it seems not. I am seraching ayrshire as this is the birthplace stated on the census in 1911.

May have to consider that trip to scotland to investigate a little bit further me thinks, however i will try and find the marriage certifcate for robert and margaret and see if this brings me a ny closer to martin.

hi its been a year and a bit since i've done any searching just wondered if anyone else could shed any light or give me any news paths to follow?

Did you get the marriage certificate ?
