McGUIRE
« on: Wednesday 11 November 09 07:31 GMT (UK) »
I am trying to find the families of two, until now unknown, cousins.

Isabella Richmond McGuire b1910 d. 1985 in Whitburn.  She married someone named Bryning.

Letitia Orr McGuire b. 1919 in Fauldhouse d. 1994 in Whitburn.  Letitia married Douglas Ronald Stark.

Any help would be great

Thanks

Hi islander,
Have you managed to locate the gravestones or find the obituaries in the local papers.
The next step I recon would be to look up the local phone directories.
The West Lothian family history soc. have a list of burials in the area with names
                                    www.wlfhs.org.uk

regards,Billy
Anderson=Glasgow, Denny,Bathgate,Kilsyth.
=USA  Alameda,New York,Boston,Illinois.
Binning= Bathgate
Miller=Kilsyth
Black, McIntyre=Ise of Lismore
Donald=Enzie
MacDonald=Denny.
Lymburner=Denny
Wright=West Lothian
Greenhorn= Blantyre,LKS.

Hi islander

There are only 21 births for the surname Bryning in Scotland between 1930 and 2006.  Have you checked these on ScotlandsPeople?

Midlothian: Adam(s), Meikle/Muckle
Leith: Bridges
Edinburgh: Brown
Prestonpans: Bird, Inglis
Fife: Wemyss
