This is the record referred to above, and is obtained using the 'other name' Kelly |

I think her mother, Margaret Muir Nee Kelly died in 1971 aged 69 in Newington. Too recent to download the certificate as it's less than 50 years ago. You would need to order it. |

You persist in saying Annie was born c1919, yet the registration of the death you say is hers shows her birth to have been 1918 |

Looking again (and again) at what I've gathered so far - I can't find a definite birth record for Margaret Kelly who married John Wilson Muir, nor her death. As she was shown as 23 in 1923, I've put her birth as c1900, but we all know how many porkies were told on certificates. |

Wow, such an amazing response, you truly are wonderful people. |

That informant would seem to be a son of the second marriage born c1918 so we can't be sure that he had the correct name for his father's first wife either. |

I've just looked at the death certificate for that Peter (1946 Broxburn). |

Not seeing a marriage for a Peter Kelly to a Margaret Allison in Ireland but if her Mum died young she may have the wrong name for her. |

Thanks AustinQ. That's as I suspected. I think her father Peter remarried. |

No second name on her birth reg - and she used Kelly as a second forename when she married |

Presumably, this is what you think is the daughter's birth? |

Anne - not Annie - on the marriage |

Can't see a death in Hastings for the daughter - please post the record |

Were the parents still alive at the time of the marriage please? |

Have you looked for these people on Censuses in Scotland or Ireland? |

On the marriage certificate of Margaret Kelly (age 23) to John Wilson Muir in Broxburn, West Lothian, Scotland, on 2 August 1923, the bride's parents are shown as Peter Kelly (general labourer) and Margaret Kelly nee Allison. Witnesses to the marriage were James Kelly, and Elizabeth B Kelly, both living in Broxburn but at different addresses. That is all the information I have about Peter and Margaret Kelly, who may have been born in Ireland. Its possible that Margaret junior may also have been born in Ireland. I have no information about siblings. |
