Thank you so much for all this lovely information, I’ll work through and come back to you all and I appreciate the links to obtain records
I thank you
|
Ida Mary ? Married James Robertson I have this information from one of the family but we all seem to have a problem with locating them with dates ect !! as they travelled from Scotland to Australia. Some of the family just are sure ? And some don’t know nothing at all.
|
Death certs may provide answers
|
Thank you ErikaH Really do appreciate this and all of you thanks
|
The son and daughter-in-law (hers is the tree on Ancestry) of Stuart Robert G Robertson are on the ER to 2005. The address is not recorded as having been sold since that date.
|
You wrote
" as they travelled from Scotland to Australia."
The - possible - record I posted on 6th March at 10.14 shows James travelling ALONE
There is certainly NO marriage on Scotland's People
It is probably also significant that NO mention of a wife is attached to his gravestone....ONLY his parents names are recorded - as you will have seen
If you want a definitive answer, I think that the death cert is your best bet
|
Thank you i will go on and order the death certificate and see what this can tell us and find out. thanks ErikaH

Poster has now come up with this from a tree on Ancestry
Ina Mary Draney 1932–2006 BIRTH 18 SEP 1932 • Brisbane, Queensland, Australia DEATH 22 DEC 2006 • Brisbane, Queensland, Australia
So..............INA....not IDA
This makes more sense......... the USA records were completely irrelevant
