Hi Lucia If you think Scottish records are low on info try looking at the English ones. They have hardly any info at all. I looked on Scotland's people for a death and the cert even showed the grave diggers names. How about that for info. Good hunting anyway Pat

hi Lucia, you haven't said what sort of dates you have. Would their deaths not have been after 1855? If so you can download cert from Scotland's People and that would tell you their parents names Christine

Hello, I have received an OPR extract from Scotlandspeople, which includes the marriage of my 3xgreat grandparents, but there isn't much on it. How can I find out more information? I want to find out who their parents were. thank you for your help Lucia
