Mothers maiden name Scotlands People.

[wilcoxon]

I found a Peter Watt Watson birth registered 1924 Hamilton, is there anyway I can find mothers maiden name as we can do in England and Wales.
I don't find him again until his death in Wales in 1983.
Thanks

I think you will need to actually order the birth certificate -- there is a 100 year closure on the on line images for births in Scotland I'm afraid.

That is a massive clue. I know more recent records are difficult so thanks for that.

A descendant had the middle name Gartshore

Not seeing an obvious source of the surname Gartshore so far.

I think this is Margaret in 1891 with family:

James M Watt 30 stonemason b. Hamilton
Elizabeth Watt 33 b. Riggend, Lanarkshire
Maggie Watt 5 b. Hamilton
Janet Watt 3 b. Hamilton
Elizabeth Watt 1 b. Fauldhouse, Linlitghowshire

Address: Woodside Cottage, Fauldhouse, Whitburn, West Lothian

Parents James Mitchell Watt and Elizabeth Graham married in Old Monkland, Lanarkshire in 1885.

From family trees mentioned, they show that Peter and brother George had a half sister, Elizabeth, born in Hamilton in 1907. There is a birth reg showing on SP which shows an Elizabeth GARTS (word too long for index...likely Gartshore?) Watt born in Hamilton in 1907. This Elizabeth is also showing as having died in Hamilton in 1973.
