Hi,
I am looking for more info on the Wallace Petrie connection.

Elizabeth Petrie had an illegitimate son called Andrew Wallace, on Andrews' death certificate it has yet another Andrew Wallace as his father.

Andrew junior was born in 1804 in Dalgety Bay Fife Scotland and died 22 July 1872

Any info would be great as this has lead me to the proverbial brick wall and as Andrew junior was illegitimate I am unsure of how to proceed.

Good hunting

Hi all,

Yes these are definitely scams and apparently lots of innocent people have been conned by these ruthless con merchants.

They get your email addresses either by reading peoples guestbook entries or by pure chance variants of email addresses.

DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES GET INVOLVED WITH THEM as it has been known that some people have died by meeting up with these scammers.

There are people out there trying to scam these scammers at their own game and you may like to check out

The IGI has Andrew Wallace m Margaret Paterson
03 APR 1824   Aberdour, Fife, Scotland  - which is about 3 miles from Dalgety.
There are a number of children born to this couple - check batch no C114224
If this is your family, Robert is listed as born
20 FEB 1836   Dalgety, Fife, Scotland

Pleased to see there is a Grizel in the family - My Fife family have a number of them - I hadn't seen the name before - I gather it was often changed to Grace.

No sign of Andrew's birth in the Dalgety batch - perhaps he was christened in a nearby parish. There are a number of extracted entries 1802-1807 in nearby parishes.

There is a marriage for a Robert Wallace in the Kent marriage index for 1862
http://extranet3.kent.gov.uk/sp/rois/marriagesearch.cfm
This index doesn't provide the spouse name - or allow a lookup without a surname.

Thanks Trish,

Yes this is my family, sorry for sounding dumb but where would I find the info for the "batch no C114224"? I am rather newish to genealogy I have been finding most of my info on a hit and miss method 

You have confirmed my Andrew marrying Margaret Paterson though 

Thanks again
Karen

I am looking for any info on a Thomas Batkin b. 9 October 1870 d. 5 January 1916 Hanley Staffs. married Frances Ryles.
They had 13?  children of which I only know one which was my grandmother Mary Batkin b 12 December 1915 d. 20 January 2004. married Norman Vincent Wedgwood b 1913 d. 1955? Stoke.

I have tried looking for census records, and even went to the length of searching the whole web for batkin name. No Luck.

Any info would be greatly appreciated.
