Title: Thomas Cottar Connor married Elizabeth Sim Aberdeen probably 1920'ish
Post by: harryone on Wednesday 18 May 16 18:11 BST (UK)
Hi,
Can any one help. Trying to find the marriage of Thomas Cottar Connor born 1898 in Dumbarton to Elizabeth Sim Born 1900 in Fraserburgh. They probably married in Aberdeen but i dont know for sure.

They had two sons Thomas Cottar Connor [1921] and Fred Weyman Connor [1924] i believe Thomas Cottar Connor [1898] died in Aberdeen before 1926. Any one help.

Tried Scotlandspeople but nothing, tried Ancestry and LDS.

Appreciate any help. Regards Harryone
