PricklyHolly I'm not sure about the census records as Williamina Gordon was maiden name of Charles' mother and she married Alexander Middleton. Her parents were Alexander Gordon and Jane Bruce. so don't think this is any of my ancestors. Thanks anyway for trying to help me.

Thankyou.for that information. I have found the military reords for Charles.

I now assume by the marriage date that I have definate wrong birth dates for Alfred and Shirley.

Charles Middleton born 1888 in Orkney married Eileen Frances Hoare who was Australian.
1. They had Alfred born 1908c who married a Vera Middleton and they had Margaret Helen and Linda.
2. Shirley born 1913c who married a David McDonald and had Stuart and Pamela
3. Son Charles born 1921 Brokenhill New South wales Australia was killed in Germany in 1944

I assume they were all born and married in Australia as no records found on Scotlands People.
I'm hoping someone can pass on some information to me re the family.
Any help much appreciated.
