Hi everyone, I have just started trying to trace my family tree and don't have any real information. My father was Charles Walker born I think in 1909 in Rigg? Scotland. I think one of his parents may have remarried as there was a half sister called Mary and a half brother called John(Jock) I have two brothers, Billy(deceased)and Charles and I am the only daughter. I hope someone can help ith this as I really have no idea how to go about finding my ancestors.

First - get his birth cert - that gives his parents names, including mothers maiden name...

Then, work backwards from date of birth of child to locate marriage OR try 1901 census with a name search

and so on and so on...for ever !!

Good luck
