Why not buy the birth cert for the son Allan as his name is quite distinctive. FreeBMD has the details: (Note spelling)

Births Mar 1887 (>99%)

Kilpatrick Allen Stirling Bolton 8c 393

From this certificate you learn mother's maiden name. This will give you the starting point to locate the marriage of James' parents.

Aston Villa thank you, you have the right family.
Isabella was Alexander's sister and came to look after his children after his wife Janet died They all came fron Renfrewshire at some time, did you come across Janet's maiden Name ????

Pete I may have to do that

IGI has this marriage.

Given to son Allen's middle name it looks promising.

G'day Sheila!

Did you ever find the marriage for James? Was the son born in 1939 their only child, perhaps there are earlier children too?

Have you been able to search back through all the GRO marriages quarers from 1939 to locate it?

Pete
