Hi I am trying to find out any information on William Wilson Mulligan born 11/5/1907 Edinburgh, Scotland his parents were John Mulligan and Isabella Hunter they married on 12 /04/1907 as far as I am aware Isabella left my Great grandfather and took their son William to either America or Canada. I would really like to find out what happened to Isabella and William. Any assistance would be a great help. |

That 1930 record, gives his father as 'Owen Mulligan' so it looks like a different guy. |

My great grandfather John Mulligan remarried after Isabella left he changed his surname to Milligan and married my great grandmother Mary McKellar Madden on 19 Sep 1919 (he was a bigamist as he never divorced Isabella) |

Yes I agree the entry for 1930 is not the same William I am looking for |

I have looked on Scotland's people for a death certificate did find one for William Wilson Milligan 1950 which states John Milligan and Mary Nilson as parents and this person was 69 when he died so was born 1881so definitely not the same person |
