 Hi Monica
The only Info I  have is that she Married Hugh McIlwairth or his Birth Name might have been  Hugh Grant and she Born In Coatbridge she died in Paisley about 1959
I know she came from a large Family I think she was the youngest of 16
thats all the info I have

Her death is registered in Paisley Renfrewshire in 1959 as Margaret Merry/ McIlwraith. She shows as age 48 so born c. 1911. As with your other query, you are outside the period where you can view anything on line

But she did marry Hugh just before the SP cut off for marriages  You can view her marriage cert on SP in 1931 at Maryhill Glasgow. The cert will include her parents' names and Hugh's to let you trace them both back.

Hi Jan,

When asking for help, it's always best to give all the details you know from the certificates. In this case, who were the parents of Margaret Merry and Hugh McIlwraith? What age were they when they married in 1931? It's also handy to include the witnesses' names as these can point to family members.
