Can anyone help? I can't find a birth of Margaret Sharp Stenhouse Cook. Her father was James Hogg Cook and her mother Agnes Stenhouse. Both parents lived in the states but Margaret died in Nov 1912 when she was age 11 months in Scotland, I can't find her birth in the US, maybe she was born on the ship coming back home. Does anyone know how I could find this information?

Denise she was probably born in Scotland, births online for Scotland only go up to 1906 so you will need to contact the GRO in Edinburgh. Georgina.

I've been to the GRO and she's not registered there either. I was there on Monday
