John Bruce 1844 Glasgow

[percy15]

Thanks Wozzle,  I saw found Johns first marriage in 1864 to either Ann Longbottom or Ann Akeroyd  in BDM free,  but i can't find wich of the two it is.
Percy.

have had a look on 1861 census to try and see which ann was his wife
unfortunately there were a few ann longbottoms whom it could be
and there was also one ann akeroyd whom it could have been
so if you really want to be sure you will need the marr.cert.

sorry
mick.

Percy.

unfortunately on none of the censuses is she with her parents
i will have a look on the 1851 census for daniel-mary fearnley to see if there is a son with them who could possibly be her father.
