Hi Sarah,



Have you got John Reid on the 1901 census ? If so, was he Reid or McDonald on there.

Hi Starlight, yes thats the only marriage i got too on scotland's people,but i didnt open the image.But the date and place match the 1 i found.

So im pretty sure thats them im looking for.



I think John would be John Reid on the 1901 census.

Would the census show his parents names? If so, and if they are Charles Mcdonald and Elizabeth Reid then it'll be a match.Could also match up their ages on the census to the D.O.B's iv got for them.



Does that make sense ? lol lol



Thanks very much Starlight



Sarah



ps, i forgot to mention... On John Reid/Mcdonald's Marriage cert It says under father's occupation tinsmith, and thats what Charles' occupation was on the Marriage cert you found. So its got to be them



thanks

Hi Sarah,



I'll try again with the census tomorrow.
