Title: Poorhouse records falkirk
Post by: UNDERTAKER on Tuesday 10 July 12 07:13 BST (UK)
If i wanted to find any record of a Poorhouse death in Falkirk say in 1868 how would i do this and would they be able to issue any Death Certificate to show Parentage of this person.?
Also at what time in scottish history in Falkirk were Birth, Marriage , and Death Certificates first issued as I am aware a lot of the time records only exist on Old Parish Registers.?

The Falkirk poor house records are missing.  The death cert is what you are looking for at SP Craclyn is right
