The Common Room / Re: copyright

Usually in the copyright statement it says that information can be used for personal study etc. The main thing usually is that the information is not used commercially and thats where you would need to apply for copyright and cite the source. So there would be no issue what the person has done.

Have you got Margaret Murrays actual death certificate as that may confirm its the right one as should have who she married to, if he is deceased.  If she was in Saltcoats then maybe she was living with one of her children or on holiday.

Lanarkshire / Re: Identity of Maggie Campbell's Parents
« on: Thursday 17 July 25 20:58 BST (UK)  »
Have you looked just for a birth of a Margaret or Maggie Bruce as it could be the same situation that her parents never married or were even together especially if her mother took on the name Forbes. Is the only evidence you have for her being born in Glasgow and the dates from the census records?

Ancestral Family Tree DNA Testing / Re: Scope and limitations of DNA matches
« on: Wednesday 25 June 25 22:52 BST (UK)  »
All i really do is have main name groups set up with different colours in the matches and then try to do this from the shared matches.  So after a while you will have quite a complete list for each surname however there are always outliers that match with you but you cant seem to link to their matches.

Free Photo Restoration & Date Old Photographs / Re: Date for photo based on clothing, please - Fife area

It could be any time from early 1900s to early 1920s.  The style of clothes and hairstyle were common for most working class people at that time and didnt change much.

You may need to go a bit further back to make the connections could like through maybe sharing great great great grandparents.  I am only saying this as thats similar figures to some of my matches that I have been in touch with.

I think the poster said that 2 of the family members left families in the UK and started up new families in Canada and Australia. So i am assuming this means leaving their spouse and children.

So that was what my post referred to especially as she said they changed their names.

Are they on the Ellis Island website as that might give you some more information.
