Hello Karen,

SP credits are from the Scotland's People site which is the main site to search for Scottish Ancestors and well worth the cost of the credits.

OK I have 1851 through to 1901 :)

But missing 1861 Is that right ?

What are SP credits ? I have bought credits on genesreunited, but I did the searches for the above names and didn't come up with any of this information.

It seems that George Collie was in The Boer War in the medical corps :)

Guys thanks so Much, I'm thrilled. I will be asking about the Kelly's at Canty Bay / North Berwick James Kelly Married a Janet Hogg 1800, I'm trying to find out where they came from. Were they Irish? they were definitely Fishing folk and James Kelly was Keeper of the Bass Rock :)

Possible births of George. My favourite would be the 1869 one, but again, with credits you can view the image and check who his parents were:

1871 COLLIE GEORGE M OLD MACHAR ABERDEEN BURGH ABERDEEN CITY/ABERDEEN 168/02 0943

1869 COLLIE GEORGE BLACK M OLD MACHAR ABERDEEN BURGH ABERDEEN CITY/ABERDEEN 168/02 0185

1870 COLLIE GEORGE MORRISON M ST NICHOLAS ABERDEEN CITY/ABERDEEN 168/01 0249

John & Mary's marriage.
If you buy SP credits, you can view/save/print the cert, and see who their parents were, the fathers' occupations, etc.

1866 COLLIE JOHN BLACK MARY ST NICHOLAS ABERDEEN CITY/ABERDEEN 168/01 0052
