I cant download DjVu in the office so unable to look this up. Can anyone see if they can find a marriage between John Dick (born c1876) and Williamina Williams (born c1870) probaly in Aberdeen. They had their first child Amelia around 1900 so would expect the marriage to be pre1900. many thanks, Zoe.

Karen apologies for not getting back to you sooner - had to take day off yesterday to do viewings on my flat (yaaaaaay) Not sure about Amelia, I need to check with the person who gave me the dates to see if they're 100% sure of the birth years. Thank you SO much for this Zoe
