Renfrewshire / "MINORS"
« on: Wednesday 19 May 10 21:42 BST (UK)  »
Hi All,  This is actually and English query, probably, but does anyone know what the age of a  "minor" was in 1860 ? Please. Was it 21 or 18 or ?. No age on an English Marriage Certificate, linked with Scottish Ancestors.
Thank You. xxxx

Thanks for your replies, we have the Downie children with their Grandparents, who are actually Aunt and Uncle of their Mother Jane , (complicated)  in 1871 and 1881 census, Mum lived until 1899 and died in Govan Glasgow. although she didn't live with her children, but son John signed her death Certificate . Dad John Downie has just vanished.   Cannot find any trace after his name on daughter Margaret's Birth Certificate in 1863,  deceased on son John's marriage 1887

Any help or clues would be appreciated.

Thanks
