Maria BUTLER  gives her fathers name as William BUTLER when she marries William Pearson.
SKS looked at the info at LMA and Charles and Maria are both given as each others living nearest relation and they are both described as illegitimate.

so far I have been unable to find a birth registered for Maria or any baptisms.

Kent Lookup Requests / woolwich help please

I am searching for the birth/baptism of Maria BUTLER c1870 Woolwich. She also has a brother Charles BUTLER c 1867 Woolwich. At first glance they appear to be on 1871 census but that is not my Maria as this one appears on a later census under her married name living with her parents.
Mine are in the Metropolitan District school in 1881 and Maria married William PEARSON 1890 in Kent.
This is the only one I have so far drawn a blank on. Any help please.

I have recently come across what looks like a 2nd marriage for one of my direct line.
JEAN SLOAN b1812 Douglas
married John McKerrow April 1835 and David Simpson June 1847

I have found 3 children from this marriage and wondered if anybody has any connection or further information.
Catherine Martin Simpson 1854
Grace Miller Simpson 1856
William Simpson 1848

Lanarkshire / Re: HILLHEAD/HILLHERD

Thanks Claire, I did wonder that and mentioned it to my mum but she didnt know of it. It is her aunts marriage but she did not know that her aunt had married so it remains a mystery. So Isabella Lawcock Mckerrow could have married at Hillhead in 1924!!!
Will need to buy some more credits for scotlandspeople then.
Thanks

Lanarkshire / HILLHEAD/HILLHERD

I have written on a piece of paper a by one of my ancestors of a marriage between an Isabella Lawcock McKerrow and somebody called HILLHEAD or HILLHERD in 1924. Difficult to read the writing. Searched scotlandspeople and the only Hillhead was on 1881 census aged 24 and from Ireland. Because of the age I would rule him out. Can anybody suggest anything else?
