Hello Joyce

On LDS or www.familysearch.org there is a

Mary D Melrose
Marriages:
Spouse: JAMES C. MORGAN
Marriage: 05 JUN 1862 Leith, Midlothian, Scotland

If this is yours you can view it on www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk to find out who her parents were.

Happy hunting

Hello Joyce

I havnt seen an obvious birth on LDS - guessing her birth year - so looks like SP is the way to go !.

Good luck

Joyce is this a census, if so which one ?

You could have included the next family in the adjoining dwelling re Williamson etc................

was census i think it was 1891 as it gives his age as 55 and in 1908 he was 72,im not very good at these things just learning,i think im right on this one 1861 so who is this lady williamson related to the morgan or the marshall

Hello Joyce

I cant view the 1891 census as i have no credits on SP. Where were they ? and where was Andrews birth place ? i can look on the 1881 - havnt seen them so far though.............
