Donald Thomson death record
« on: Saturday 25 January 20 04:24 GMT (UK) »
Hello I am after some help or advive.
I am trying to confirm the parents of Donald Thomson (likely Born 1794 Dull).
There are a few trees on Ancestry with a death date and parents, but I would like to confirm the details myself. I have been caught out before on trees :-[
His possible death date pops up on Scotlandspeople as 1869 Aberfeldy. Mothers maiden named Irvine.
I am a bit skint at the moment otherwise I would buy credits.
Is there another way or website I could use to confirm his parents?

Kind regards
Cath

Yes in Dull. I found him in the 1841,51 & 61 census at the address Croftnacoil.

He married FOUR times! 9 kids.

I am trying to confirm his parents. I think they are Alexander Thomson & Helen Irvine. I just need proof.

The birth you mention:

THOMSON DONALD ALEXR. THOMSON/HELEN IRVEN FR1479 1834 (FR1479) M 18/06/1794 346/40 154 Dull

I think only a cert purchase, or two, will give you the answer.

Thanks.
I might have to save up or hope Scotlandspeople gives out free credits again  ;D I wouldn't need many.

No. The certificate will cost you less than a cup of Starbucks.
Never trust anything you find online (especially submitted trees and transcriptions on Ancestry, MyHeritage, FindMyPast and other commercial web sites) unless it's an image of an original document - and even then be wary because errors can and do occur.
