Hi Jen,
It's looking very likely that I am on the right track and Alexanders parents are William Jolly and Jean Cowie.
I would love to get a look at those DC's. Could you forward them to (*) please.
Regards Adam

Thanks all,
I have applied for Alexander Jolly and Catherine Almond wedding cert. Hopefully that shows Alexanders parents as William Jolly and Jane or Jean Cowie. Then everything else will fit together.

Hi Radcliff. Attached is a photo of a stamp that is on Alexander Jolly's Master Certificate. It indicates the gift of the telescope, but it's great to now know some more details. Thanks again.

Thanks for the input. What's the best site to get Cert's? GRO or somewhere else?

Hi chempat, thanks for taking an interest in my post.
Previously, the only info I had was that he was born in Aberdeen in 1827 and have both marriage details.. Yesterday I was given a copy of his Masters Certificate and on the back shows birth date and place of birth.
A search on "Scotlands People" shows two Alexander Jolly's born between 1826 and 1827. I am assuming the one born 7/4/1826 in the Benholm Parish is the one, as it is  closer to Brotherton.
I don't have any birth, death or marriage certificates, but have some census info when he was living in Albert Road, Jarrow in 1881.
I will have to keep digging.

Hello all, I know there are a lot of posts on the Jolly's, but I am looking for information on an Alexander JOLLY born 1827 in Mairn of Brotherton, Kincardine. This is the place of birth given on his Masters Certificate of Competency.(issued 1872). I have his death in 1889 in South Shields.
He married Catherine ALMOND in 1856 in Northumberland and later Ann DEW in 1875 in South Shields.
Any info or links would much appreciated.
Adam
