Thanks so much EV.

I downloaded his marriage & death certs so I know all of the census return's found were correct.

I'll go and have a play on IGI now!

Hi all,

Just to let you know the progress...

So far using certificates I have managed to follow Peter Duncan's paternal & maternal parents etc.

The scary thing is that names in their tree intermingle with ones in mine...!

Wondering if this is why I always had an interest in this Registrar!

I have found that Peter's son Arthur Stuart Duncan born 25.03.1881 left for America, arriving in 1920 into New York from Southampton. I haven't been able to follow him yet as my world subscription in Ancestry hasn't been renewed yet, so I'm not sure what happened with him. Seems a bit sad that Peter and his wife were in their 40's when they had him,  he appears to be an only child and then he emigrates!
