Thanks again. I have the Sapstead link, and I had the merchant records for Daniel...I was just trying to tie him into Alice...and with your help that is now done!.

Robert Bone Glen was born 1901 and Christina Bone was born 1890....that seems a bit odd?  I have her down in Harrow in 1911 still, and unmarried.   Is there a marriage date for Christine and Peter Glen please??

I have tried to look on Scotlands People but can not see the record when I click on it, so have wasted all my credits  . Obviously it doesn't work on IE or Crome....?

Scotlands People has the marriage of Peter Glen and Christine Bone - Rothesay - 1893 but that's all the info you get for 1 credit - don't think its worth wasting another 5 credits - since it is not the right match for your Christine.

Noticed you added this piece to your last post - Scotlands People worked fine for me with Internet Explorer.

Aha.  Thank you.  Why don't they tell you that before making you lose all your money........!

Images you paid for are never lost at SP they are under the 'viewed images' at the top of the page - even if you have never viewed them

Middle names such as the one in this example  can often be the mothers maiden name.

Sometimes the grandmothers maiden name.

They can be very helpful, particularly when they are rare or unusual surnames.

Hi, the same family so I continued the same thread... Daniel Frazer Gordon had a daughter Margaret Penuel Coutts Gordon b1891.  She is the sister of Gladys Alexander Gordon.   I have no records for MPCG apart from the 1891 census then nothing until a death record in 1961 which implies she has married someone called Inglis?   Or it could be someone else totally different also with the same MPCG name?
Can anyone find anything please?

Thanks

And the Bone theory was a redherring - the other daughter Christina B Gordon was Christina Bella Gordon!

The 1961 probate is for someone surnamed Coutts or Inglis - rather than Gordon. So not sure she is yours

This is the marriage
