Dobbie 1836 Edinburg
« on: Thursday 12 October 06 11:54 BST (UK) »
Hi,
hope i am at the right place for Edinburgh! I am trying to trace the birth/bap for John Dobbie born 1836 Edinburgh.John married Jane McIndoe 18 Aug 1854 Barony Glasgow, but i know from other records he was born Edinburgh, but don't have his parents sadly..
any Dobbies in Edinburgh would be a start i think...

Many thanks
Sam-Ann

Not sure if we have done this before the only one that fits http://www.familysearch.org Birth John Dobbie 16 April 1836 Glasgow Lanark parents William Dobbie and Agnes Wilson? Thinking about marriage Barony Glasgow?

thank you for your help, i have looked for John and his family in Glasgow but until yesterday i i was aware that John was born theer until i read one of his childrens birth certs which gives his place of birth as Edinburgh...and i didn't actully find a birth for John in Glasgow either so now you have given me something to think about with the birth entry you have found for him at glasgow! Phew...


thanks

Tom, thanks for your reply I do have that census detail. I have a son John born to John and Jane Sept 1856 at 36 Bothwell St  Anderson Glasgow and wondered if the Census should read Bothwell St. I was told Stockwell St was in the business area and I think my family are more likely to be in a poorer area.

If you can find John's death certificate (and it's in Scotland) then both his parents (including his mother's maiden name) should be named on it.  But there are occasions when someone doesn't know them!
