Thanks for all replies will check some more details. Not sure if was a second marriage but big difference in age so maybe The 1861 census is the correct one Thanks Pam |

Apologies for delay in replying but i have been away this week. I have not been able to find a death for William Vannan in Scotlands People. The address given for him when he registered his brothers death was 5 Hillpark Avenue Edinburgh. His brother died on 22nd January 1960. William was born on 27th Feb 1908. Any suggestions as to why I cant find it would be much appreciated Many Thanks Pam |

I am still searching for Death of William Vannan born 27th Feb 1908 Scotland. I have traced him for a period of over 20 years at 5 Hillpark Avenue Edinburgh in the British Phone Directories up to 1979 This address is the one he gives when he registered the death of his brother James in 1960. Any help with finding this would be much appreciated. Thank you Pam |

You could get his wife's death certificate to narrow the timescale for his death . |

This looks like the death of Robert Vannan (b. 1798). It will give you the names of all spouses and the names of his parents including his mother's maiden surname if the informant knew the details. |

thanks for replies i have eliminated the death of William in 1974 as he still appears at 5 Hillpark Avenue Edinburgh every year until 1979 in British Phone Directories Thanks for info on Robert death in 1863. Kind regards Pam |

Sorry but I wouldn't eliminate that William just because he still appears in the 'phone book. I know many widows who didn't change the entry after their husband had died. |
