Hi Joyce,

The writing was unclear on the 1873 death certificate. Andrew Bennet Morgan died at 44 Pitt Street, Bonnington, Leith (aged 68 years). His father James Morgan was a tailor, not a sailor.

Andrew's 68 years of age in 1873 certainly puts the marriage Annette found in the right time-frame to be his parents.

All the best,

Andrew Paterson

There are two records of this marriage, one in Alloa, Clackmannanshire, and the other in Clackmannan, Clackmannanshire. It is almost certain that one record will be the calling of the banns in the bride's parish, and the other should be the calling of the banns in the groom's parish. You are fortunate that both are extracted from the records rather than submitted information.

    JAMES MORGAN - KATHARINE MORRAY
    Marriage: 01 AUG 1790 Clackmannan, Clackmannan, Scotland
The records are probably little more than a sentence each. If you are lucky there is some other morsel of information there. A copy of each can be ordered through ScotlandsPeople and they can send a paper copy out to you by post. They are not available as images on screen yet - maybe in a year or two.

Or if you can get to an LDS Family History Centre, they can order the microfilms in for you, and you can view them there.

All the best,

Andrew Paterson
