Help with death lookup please
« on: Wednesday 27 May 09 07:47 BST (UK) »
I'm trying to find the death of George BENNIE, born 3 May 1865 in Bridgeton Lanark. He was the son of William Bennie and Mary Ann Cook, and was still alive in 1922 and living in James St Glasgow (according to a NZ will.)

I've looked on Scotlandspeople - the most likely one:

1939 BENNIE GEORGE     M 74 LINLITHGOW /WEST LOTHIAN 668/00 0051

was not the right one.

Is there SKS going to New Register House who could check for the death of a George Bennie with parents WilliamBennie and Mary Ann Cook please?

Many thanks

Hi Audrey,

Many thanks for your kind offer. :-)

George BENNIE was born 1865 in Bridgeton Glasgow. His parents were William BENNIE and Mary Ann COOK.

He appears in the 1927 Glasgow directory as:

Did he marry?

Do you know his wife's name and when she died?

Hi sancti,

I don't know if he married - I couldn't find a marriage on SP so I don't think he did. Plus there's a family story of his nephews and nieces inheriting from his estate, but I don't know when. The birth you found is for an earlier George who died in infancy.

I can't see a death for him. I wonder if it may have been mistranscribed as Bennet

Was the father, William a machinery merchant?


Audrey it may be easier to look for a copy of the will and testament
