Hi,

Does any kind person have access to marriage records for Greenoch, Renfrewshire?

I am interested in knowing the marriage dates for Peter Bissett who married Jane Webster possible around 1910 - 1923 who I believe were married in the Greenoch area.

Even better if someone could give me details of parents.

Many thanks in anticipation,

Andy

You need credits on Scotlandspeople for this one

Thank you for your advice Glitterbaby, I'll take a look.

Could this be him?

Looks as if the marriage was in 1916 but I have got no credits to view it

BUT the possible match is for Peter Bissett to Webster but if you add christian name of Jane - then no matches

Hi Catherine,

Thanks for the information, it could well be him. I'm afraid that I have very little to go on here only the fact that their daughter Jeanie was born in 1923 in Greenoch Renfrewshire.

Is there any site of a Jane Webster in the same area around the same time please?

Thanks again for your help,
Andy

Hi Glitterbaby,

Is it possible that you could you tell me the christian name for the Webster partner in the marriage please?

Thanks for your help,
Andy

Sorry Andy

Got no credits to view the search results.

One credit to view search results and then a further 5 credits to view the cert

There are a few Jane Webster's in Renfrewshire but none with a similar date of birth or in Greenock.
You could do with having a look at Scotlands census for 1911, but you need credits for that too.

Also you can not view online at Scotlandspeople births within the last 100 years - marriages I think are 75 years and deaths 50 years - but the site would give you the details needed to order the cert.

Do you have daughter Jeannie's birth cert.?
If you don't then you should start by buying a copy to confirm mother's name and maiden name.

Hi Catherine and GlitterBaby,

Thank you so much for your advice. I am speculating that Jane was her 'pet' name given by the family, I seem to recall Joan from somewhere. No doubt it will come to me in the middle of the night!

Very helpful suggestions given for birth certificate and for 1911 Scottich Census, thank you.

Much appreciated,

Andy

30 credits on scotlandspeople, cost £7:00. Not cheap but well worth it when you're stuck and much cheaper than the cost of a trip to scotland so worth investing in.
Do let us know if you find any more info.

Catherine

Thanks Catherine, I will.

Regards,
Andy
