Hello there,
got myself in to bit of a pickle with my tree!
I have Robert Anderson Young b.1902 d ? on his birth certificate his father as down as John Young and his mother as Janet Anderson.
I also have his marriage certificate which shows his dad to be John and his mother to be JANE defrom (?cant read it) Young maiden name Anderson? which would tell me they were married.
The only marriage I can find between these two people are is in 1873 when John was 38 and Janet was 42 (on this marriage cert it says that they were both widowed before marriage. But if these were Roberts parents this would make them 67 and 71 when they had Robert, So I ruled these out.
I found john with who I believed this parents to be and his date of birth was down as 1855, so I did a death check and found one who died in 1917 age 67 in the right place, I purchased the certificate and I found that this Robert had married a Janet Cormack.
But two certificates clearly state that Robert Anderson Youngs mother was an Anderson and not a cormack. So I am really pickled
I have searched for marriage between a JANE anderson and a John Young but this is Renfrew? I am just gettin more and more confused?
