Thanks again all of you.I have had a glance at scotlandspeople, but I will pass on the details and let Lisa decide if she wishes to proceed, I think if she wants to know
her past she should investigate it herself.

Sorry Tony. I should have mentioned it was on scotlandspeople. Have pm'd you.
You can either register with them and buy credits (£7 for 30) and then order the extract or use the GROS data numbers I sent you to order from http://www.gro-scotland.gov.uk. This would normally cost £15.

A fixed fee of 12GBP (approx. 13EUR or 19USD) is payable per extract from scotlandspeople so this is exceptional value especially as you will still have credits to look up further family.

Which archives website ?

If you looking for Scottish info then you need this site
http://www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk/

But there are restrictions on what you can view online such as births within the last 100 years, marriages 75 years and deaths 50 years

The marriage cert will name her father....................

Her birth cert will name both parents - and, I believe, say when and where they married

You can find out how to obtain it by accessing Scotland's people website

Look for her name in 'search all trees'

What is your connection?

When did she move to Manchester?

How much research have you done yourself?
