THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!  You are wonderful!  Now if I can find what I need on Scotlandspeople.  Trying to connect the dots for my great grandfather.  This might be his mother or step-mother.

hi beginner at family tree research but i have a death certificate stating that a rebecca fleming died oct 3rd 1978 at bellsdyke hospital dob 9/4/1885 i have parents names but no other details about them also husbands name how do i manage to gain information from this. This is from my grandad surname livingstone i think this could of been his grandmother. Any advice would be great as i have mentioned before i am a total beginner and very confused

[diddyaddy]

You're probably going to have to go to www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk to do searches,  and then order the birth, death and/or marriage certificates.  You cannot see images of the more recent certificates online due to privacy issues.  It costs  £6 for 30 credits and you can order more at a time if you think you'll use them.  Ancestry.com doesn't have access to the Scottish records, but you can find transcriptions of Scottish censuses from 1841 to 1891 on Ancestry.

Good luck!

Thanks for your help il have another go at it grandparents have gone now so finding it very difficult to get information just left with letters written in the war so trying to get some information from these is there any where you can do a address check as i have the addresses dates they lived there to see if i can gain anymore info from these

Hi Claire,
Is Fleming, Rebecca's married name ?
No Rebecca Fleming (with Soundex ON) is listed as a birth in Scotland in 1885 on 'scotlandspeople'.
What was her husband's forename(s) and surname?
What were her parents full names?
With this information, I should be able to help.
Best to you
