His marriage to Margaret:

CHRISTIE
JAMES
TOSH
MARGARET
1890
275/ 14
Brechin


If you spend a few credits on ScotlandsPeople, you can view or print the image of the original cert, and it will tell you his parents' names, and where and when his parents married.

ScotlandsPeople doesn't show any James Christie born actually in Rescobie 1860-70, although several in the Forfar area.

I'm helping a relation starting to look up anothe branch of her family.
James Christie DOB 30 May 1865 Rescobie, Forfarshire
DOD 18 March 1930 in Bothwell.
He married twice?
There is confusion about when, where he was born and parents.
Any help will be great, thanks.
