    Could these be the ones?

    Looks like James was still at sea in the 1901 census and Sarah was in the Orkneys with her father and sister:

    To track down Sarah I used birth year and place of birth from 1891 census data.

    Hello Janey

    Have you tried looking for these on scotlandspeople ?
    The marriage is there in 1890 - a search for James Hume marriage to Sarah only produced two hits and there they were.
    1890
    HUME JAMES MCBAIN
    FEE SARAH FOBISTER
    NEWINGTON EDINBURGH CITY/MIDLOTHIAN
    You will have to buy credits to view it though.

    Thumbs up McBain-Hume;



    WOW you have found them,,!!!!!

    I cannot say enough thanks for your terrific help,, I would never
    have thought to look for "Sarah" up in the "Orkney"s,,,,,,
    Yeah it does look like 'James' was at 'sea' and Sarah went 'home'
    with the kids,,,!!!!! James had sisters named 'Gracie & Elizabeth'
    his granmother was 'Elizabeth/Betsy' so it's them alright,,,,

    My thanks Casey' I will get the marr/cert from 'S/P'

    Appreciate all your efforts, thank you very much

    Kind regards;

    HI Pandad;

    My grateful appreciation for finding my 'cousins-wife' all the way
    up in the 'Orkney's,,,, I wonder now if 'Sarah' had gone back there
    to live with 'James' being a 'seaman',,,??? I am looking at the 'kids'
    and their 'schooling' in the different places,,,,??

    James' family came to Glasgow from 'Leith' and his father 'Thomas'
    was also a 'ship-steward' they lived in the 'Tradeston-area' his sister
    'Mary Blair Hume' (mar) my 3x cousin "John Kirkwood Thomson" on 7/Sept
    1893, 92 Gloucester St,Tradeston,I have lost them after that but just
    found on 'Ancestry' 1901 Census 'St George Dist/Civil Par/St Michael' Edinb/
    Midd. address 175 Gorgie Rd, "John Thomson & wife Mary", daughter
    Elizabeth B.P. Thomson age 1yr,,,, I think this "May" be them based on
    the child's name for 'Mary's grandmother,(Elizabeth/Betsy),,,
    Could you possibly check this and see if they give anymore info, John was
    a 'Drapery-Warehouseman'/Commission-Agent',,,
    I did wonder if they married in 1893 and had no children till 1900 a bit
    strange,,????

    Would appreciate your help very much thank you,,,

    Kind regards;
    Janey;
