Birth of sister Mary ?????:

EDIT:

But if that's the right Mary, then the 1940 birth of Thomas must be wrong.

I'm can't help with his ancestry as I can't find anything, but Thomas was still alive when his wife died 17/11/2013 accoring to her obituary in the North West Evening Mail. They had 6 children, all named in the obit.

Are you certain of Thomas's year of birth please?

I keep coming back to this marriage. Just a gut feeling, nothing positive.

He is recorded as Thomas Brand (no middle initial) on the ERs 2001-2013 still in Barrow (LA13) with wife Maureen D according to 192.com. He either married her in the registry office or non-conformist (eg catholic) church.

If you are looking for him maybe someone with FMP could look up the address for you and you can check whether the property has been sold recently?

Thomas P was born 16/03 1940 in Glasgow. He did have siblings-Robert,Alexander,Mary,Ella & Millie (I've found Millicent in the Scotlands People records) The P isn't for Palmer.It's for Patrick (we think-not 100%).The family lived in the Gorbals area,Govan,Glasgow. Unsure of where/when Robert & Mary died.

As he married in England, the certificate will only show his father’s name, not his mother’s. However, one of witnesses might be from his family rather than the bride’s or friends. That could help trace other relatives.
Hopefully it’ll also give his full name, including a middle one.

Like rootgatherer, I couldn’t see a birth for a Thomas P in the correct time frame. Have you considered that although he may have grown up in Scotland, he may have been born elsewhere? If his father had been conscripted into the services , his mother may have followed him to wherever he was initially posted.
If she had relatives outside of Scotland, she may have moved there.

Any idea where or when Thomas P's parents died please?

rootgatherer Report 13 Sep 2018 11:15

You would order the birth certificate through Scotlandspeople but there is no Thomas P Brand birth in 1940 !

Paul, do you know the names of any of his siblings please?

Are you thinking the the "P" is for Palmer?

Paul Report 13 Sep 2018 11:00

Thomas P married in Barrow-in-Furness in 1960.Fathers name-Robert,mothers name-Mary.
Don't know mothers maiden name-said to possibly be Palmer.I'll probably have to get a copy of Thomas's marriage or birth cerificate.I know where to get the marriage one,unsure of where to get the birth.I know he was born in 1940 & do know the exact date.
I can't find a marriage of a Robert Brand to a Mary Palmer though?
