You can also search in person at The Mitchell Library in Glasgow. Advanced booking recommended for both The Mitchell and The Scotlandspeople Centre.

There were 53 Gemmell births in Port Glasgow 1915-30. For such recent births, SP doesn't allow a search by mms, so it's not possible to narrow it down further online

You'd have to either spend a fortune buying all the birth certs, or else go to the ScotlandsPeople Centre at 2 Princes Street, Edinburgh, as rootgatherer has suggested..

Old genealogists never die.....they just lose their census.

You really need Scotlandspeople to work forward. It is best to visit the Centre in person for these recent events as those births cannot be viewed online.

Hi Lisa,

Maybe you could post the names of the brothers and sisters you have found to save wasting time on duplicating the information you already have.

HI There

Trying to find the brothers and sisters of my late grandmother. Can only find 6 of them. There were 9 of them in total. They were all born between 1915 and 1930 in Port Glasgow, Renfrewshire. Parents were Rose Ann Forsyth and Anthony Gemmell. My late grandmother was Adeline Forsyth Gemmell born 1923.
