If you have Scottish roots, then you may find that there are intensely detailed records available for you to investigate. * To start your research, it's best to get a wedding certificate if at all possible.
If you know the names of the couple, it shouldnt be too hard to identify the wedding record, even if you do not know when or where the wedding occurred. It is really improbable that there'll be another couple with the same full names. * when you have a Civil Wedding certificate ( 1855 onwards ), you'll see the document offers an amazing amount of valuable info. The names and occupations of the folks of the couple are also given, which can let you go back another generation. * If you know that your ancestor died in Scotland after 1855, you should be capable of finding the death certificate. If your ancestor was a married female, you can do a cross-reference search using both her married and original name. If your lavatory hasnt been updated since the sevent! ies-and it shows-it could be overdue for a change.
These records show those living at home on census night, so you're able to spot full families if you've got an idea of where they were living in Scotland when the census was taken.
