James Robert Scott b1842 Liverpool Lanc. Was he married?
« on: Saturday 29 July 17 05:45 BST (UK) »
Hi,
  I am trying to find if James Robert Scott b1842, son of James Randall Scott 1817-1870 and his wife Ann nee Mason, ever married and had children.  I think I have found his death on IGI, aged 77 James R. Scott b1842, died 1914 West Derby Lancashire.  We are trying to find a surviving male Scott for DNA reasons, and we're getting desperate.  With so many 'James Scott's from Lanc, we are not making much progress.
Thank you for any help.

I think you're looking for a needle in a haystack?

For instance, there are 5 James Scott born in Liverpool in 1842, with also a James Robert Scott registered in West Derby.

There are records on Ancestry, for Masters and Mates Certificates, for James Robert Scott, dated 1860.
If he was a mariner, he may be difficult to pin down?

James Randall Scott married Anne Mason at St Phillip ,Liverpool.
looking on IGI
there is only one James Scott - father James marriage that fits the timeframe - but - they could have moved to Liverpool as late as 1872 ??
anyway
James Scott to Fanny Modsley Wright at Holy Trinity church,Liverpool 26th January 1873 .
fathers
James Scott
William Wright
maybe see if James and Fanny had a son named Randall ??

it certainly is a long shot - but you never know  :)

Thank you all for your help.  With so many 'James Scotts' I think that my search will be just an elimination project!  Thanks KGarrad for this gem, as I know that James Robert's father was a Master Mariner. A good start.  Cheers.  Rap

Thanks Rosie99.  I can find James with his known family in the 1851 Census where he is a young boy.  By the 1861 Census he would be about 18 and not easily identifiable, so I will visit the library and search Ancestry again I think.  Thanks for all of your help.  Rap
