Have you tried the IGI for a baptism and/or marriage?

For his death, you'll have to buy credits on SP

But you need to be certain of the correct name.......the census version seems more plausible

How did you work back to him?

Hi Reggie,

Have credits for SP and came up with nothing.
I went with both names and still nothing.
My friend says it Falik McAeron, how he worked back to
him I don't know its on his side of the tree.
Thought if someone could find his birth in Ireland it would
be a start for me to help him.

The census gives you the surname of his wife at the time he married her.....not necessarily her birth name, of course. I have to say it also seems improbable

And the most likely version of the man's surname...........I would suggest

We are looking for a Catharine Black as his wife but our Catharine
was b abt 1805 and in this census she is aged 60 where as our
Catharine would have been 46.

So why not look for Catherine's records?

Well Reggie have looked and again another ancestor
who I cannot find a marriage or death for, I have a
marriage date for her marriage to William Trueman
on 3 Dec 1822 Aberdeen but I cannot find it.

Ive posted all the other names just in case they ring a bell

There are 10 matches for a Felix Mc* searched between 1855-1860

Statutory Register Marriages 1855 - 1860.Learn more. 10 matches

But if they married before befor 1855 there will be no records on SP

Thanks Gins her son Robert Trueman was b 1825
so would fit there but wonder where her daughter
Mary Anderson Trueman b 1827 is.

Was Chatherine Black married to William Trueman and she reverted back to her maiden after his death?

Gins marriage records on SP go back to 1538 to
1854, I have a marriage record for 1789 for an
ancestor.

Statutory Marriages Index

The statutory marriages index contains entries from the the civil registers of marriages for all Scotland, from 1855 until 2009.

The index does not include the full date of the event, because only the year was captured when the indexes were compiled, although the full date is present on register entries themselves

Sorry I meant statutory marriages. Do you have parish registrations?

Here's the Trueman marriage, on SP:

03/12/1822 TROWMAN WILLIAM CATHARINE BLACK/ M OLD MACHAR ABERDEEN CITY CITY/ABERDEEN 168/0B 0160 0085

Yes Gins Parish registrations sorry.

I did not find a death for William Trueman or Catharine,
did try her maiden name but with no luck which I feel
I must have missed something on them all somewhere
along the line.

I think I am getting very confused with SP!

I was wondering, do you know when Catherine died? This census popped up and was wondering if Felix married again?
