Hi All,

I wondered if anyone can help me decipher this death entry I can read some but not all I know that it is the death entry for Mary Small widow of William Small & the date date. But need help with both parents names & profession & mothers maiden name & also who the informant was any help would be great. I have posted a link to the certificate below.

Thanks Julie

Hi Julie,

You got one of those dreaded backhand ones...

Here is my take on the parents:

John Robertson
Linen Weaver
(Deceased)

Elizabeth Robertson
M.S. Rodger
(Deceased)

The informant was her son... ___ Small. Oh my... with your knowledge of her sons' names, which one looks most likely?

All the best,
Sarah

Hi Julie,

I reckon the son was Alex.

All the best,
