The parents on the death certificate are Henry Wilson (deceased) master hairdresser and Agnes Fourcest(?) deceased

Henry James was a hatter and hosier - married to Emma Thompson. Son George was the informant

Matthew, what were the names of your gg grandparents.

I had eight credits left so I downloaded the Lanark 1931 death.

If you let me know his parents' names I will put in on here if it is the correct one. Alternatively I can "strike that one off the list"

Welcome to the boards Matthew.

You will need to buy some credits for Scotlands People to check these out. It's a pay to view site. As both deaths are over 50 years ago, then you will be able to view the full death certificate. The information shown may help you to determine if you have found the correct death. The site will tell you what information you should find on the certificate, but the detail given will depend on the knowledge of the person registering the death.

Only 2 possibles coming up with both Henry and James as Forenames. (There are 40 if you just look for Henry)
