Hi
I am looking for a marriage for the above David McKay Brand b1896 Carnoustie, Scotland he died in  1926.  According to a local Newspaper report here in Scotland he married a Margaret Campbell also born in Scotland.
David was pro at the Latrobe Country Club, Pensylvannia.  The wedding seemingly  took place quietly at Pittsburg.  The club members marked the occasion by entertaining their pro.to dinner. Over 60 members were present and in the course of the evening they presented Brand with a purse of dollars.

Regards, Weemanswife

PS The paper was dated May, 1923
