The birth you mention:

THOMSON DONALD ALEXR. THOMSON/HELEN IRVEN FR1479 1834 (FR1479) M 18/06/1794 346/40 154 Dull

I think only a cert purchase, or two, will give you the answer.

Jamjar

Thanks.
I might have to save up or hope Scotlandspeople gives out free credits again  ;D I wouldn't need many.

Is he in Dull in 1841?

Did he marry and have children?

Jamjar

Yes in Dull. I found him in the 1841,51 & 61 census at the address Croftnacoil.

He married FOUR times! 9 kids.

I am trying to confirm his parents. I think they are Alexander Thomson & Helen Irvine. I just need proof.

Scotland / Donald Thomson death record
« on: Saturday 25 January 20 04:24 GMT (UK)  »
Hello I am after some help or advive.
I am trying to confirm the parents of Donald Thomson (likely Born 1794 Dull).
There are a few trees on Ancestry with a death date and parents, but I would like to confirm the details myself. I have been caught out before on trees :-[
His possible death date pops up on Scotlandspeople as 1869 Aberfeldy. Mothers maiden named Irvine.
I am a bit skint at the moment otherwise I would buy credits.
Is there another way or website I could use to confirm his parents?

Kind regards
Cath

Re NSW BDM and ACT to 1930 ... yes, on NSW BDM  :) 


https://www.nla.gov.au/research-guides/australian-birth-death-and-marriage-records/australian-capital-territory

NB: For births in the Canberra region prior to 1918 see the indexes of New South Wales. For marriage and death records prior to 1930 also see New South Wales. Registrations of these events in the Canberra region may be recorded under the Districts of Queanbeyan or Yass.

ADD
So, births less than 100 years ago, upto 1930, in the ACT were registered on NSW BDM records.  So, under 100 years rule, they are not yet displaying on NSW BDM online index.   BUT ... I am not sure if NSW Reg Gen forwarded copy of those ACT registrations to ACT BDM ... remembering NSW Reg Gen forwarded VIC and Qld etc through to those Reg Gens.   My reliable rellie who will know is currently on holiday.   ::)

Is it possible that not all births, marriages and deaths in the Canberra region prior to 1930 were indexed on NSW BDM?
If so how would one go about tracing  a record from the Canberra region mid 1800's? Parishes records?
