Good Morning,
I have recently discovered that a whole bunch of my Sutherland line emigrated to USA and Canada circa 1910 / 1930 from Scotland.
I am going through them and finding quite a lot of info…
there are plenty of Ancestry trees including some of them. But I still have to find the info for myself.
What I am finding difficult is proof of marriage - I have this on the odd naturalisation cert, which is helpful. But I cannot seem to find an actual marriage document.
There are quiet a few names involved – but the particular one I am working on at the moment is:
George Craig Cowie. Now I have his social security death notice. Which shows he was born in 1916 in Canada. I have found that this was Saskatchewan and possibly Cabri or Moose something or other….(oh dear). I have the enlistment doc for his time spent in the Military. But would love to find more on that. I also found a copy of the short naturalisation form.
So his details are:
George Craig Cowie, son of William and Mary Carstairs Sutherland. Born 1916 Saskatchewan Canada – died 1994 Los Angeles.
But nothing in the middle, his military papers show him as married. I cannot find that.
Just off to Google him and then must take advantage of the sun and get some fence posts in the garden, so wont be back till tonight.
