Hello, im new to this but my brother told me there are many good souls willing to help, of which i would be so grateful. Im trying to trace my fathers cousin, who might be the only person alive who might know who his father was. Her name was June Allan Dawson and was believed to have moved to canada in the late 50s early 60s. My fathers name is Alfred andrew wheatly dawson born in sterling in 1943 and lived at sauchie clackmannashire. She was a couple of years older, I cant find any trace of her, but have lots of info if anyone is willing to help.......Thankyou Maxine.

I take it you mean your father was born in Stirling. Where was June Allan Dawson born please? There is no matching birth that I can see on Scotlandspeople.

There is this marriage showing on Scotland's People. Daisy is a common nickname for Margaret. I actually searched a much wider year range, narrowing down gradually. There was only the one Fraser Dawson to an Allan from 1900 to 1950

As it is over 75 years ago you could look at and download the certificate from the site - buy credits at £7 for 30. Would cost you 6 credits in total - 1 for above info and another 5 to view

Clackmannanshire is a historic county and council area in Scotland, bordering the council areas of Stirling, Fife and Perth & Kinross


There is a June Dawson b 1941 and one in 1945 in Glasgow. No image available as under 100 years ago
