Title: Margaret Toy
Post by: djcrtoye on Friday 05 June 15 11:10 BST (UK)

Hi all I hope you can help me with my inquiry.  I'm looking for the follwing information, my g-g aunt Margaret Toy was born in 1878 Airdrie, Lanarkshire.  I've discovered bits and pieces suggests that she married and died some where in Renfrewshire.  I would like to know who she married and when she died ?  I vaguely remember seeing some information that she worked on a farm in the county.

Thanks,

Dominic

There is a tree on Ancestry with copies of marriage and other certificates and a death for her 1956 Barrhead Renfrewshire

Thanks for that.  Can't access that part of Ancestry, but can go through Scotlands People and work from there.
