Handwriting Deciphering & Recognition / Re: Decipher parents family names from marriage certificate
« on: Monday 10 February 20 13:44 GMT (UK)  »
Thank you again.
James Todd Chambers ended up being an Engineer but started out as a contractor so LAWYER for his Dad could be correct.
The age difference between James Todd and Margaret Jane, 21 years, may confirm that he was a widower!
The S for St Andrew does look similar to Sawyer. Is James Todd's profession shown as 'Joiner'? Joiner and Sawyer could mean they worked together or in similar fields?
His first marriage certificate is for you to find for me!

Handwriting Deciphering & Recognition / Decipher parents family names from marriage certificate

Thank you for your help in the past about places of birth. I now would like all you very clever people to decipher the parents' family names of James Todd Chambers and Margaret Jane Meade on the previously attached marriage certificate if you don't mind.

Can anyone decipher the places of birth on this marriage certificate for James Todd Chambers and Margaret Jane Mead(e)? It is the bottom marriage.

Thank you all that have replied so very quickly. I have everything there is to know about my Grandfather from 1912 onwards (his marriage) but Dundee has I think linked it all together with her Trove piece about Mrs Fletcher from Cue. I think A E Chambers may have been an illegitimate child of James Todd Chambers junior or one of his older sisters and was raised by James Todd Chambers senior and Margaret Jane Chambers with James Todd junior as an 'uncle' figure. That could explain why there is no birth certificate?

I am searching for birth information about my Grandfather, Arthur Ernest Chambers, born 30/06/1890 in Victoria Australia or possibly Scotland. I can find information on him in Perth, Western Australia from 1912 but nothing before. Anything just might help.
