John Stewart born 1854

[Lesley Robertson]

Birth certificates didn’t start in Scotland until 1855, and the 1856 ones were not very informative, so I suggest that you go to Scotland’s People and get George’s 1862 birth certificate. That should tell you when and where his parents married, as well as the mother’s maiden name.

Thank you I have seen this as well. I haven't been able to go further than you as of this point. It's almost as if they stop in history at this point. Christina thank you for all your help.
