Hi all.

I am trying find out any information on someone named Mary, born 21st March 1929 in Glasgow. Sorry I do not know her surname. I know it's a long shot, but any information would be greatly appreciated.

Regards,
Dave.

Scotlandspople can not be searched on date of birth but you would not be able to view the cert anyway as it is within the last 100 years

Researching:
PLEASE DO NOT: send me information concerning your thread on the board as it should be posted on your request where all members can see it. PLEASE DO NOT: ask me for help with lookups as they should be placed on the boards to get the best possible result. PLEASE DO NOT: open your tree just because I have posted information on your thread as I will not be related. THANK YOU. Researching Carter, Cass and Walker in England.

I think you might have trouble with so little information. A quick check on Scotlands People website shows 1745 Marys born in Glasgow City in 1929 - 145 + a month! You can further reduce by entering a District (if known) as well, but even then...........

As the birth is less than 100 years ago you would not be able to look at the certificates to check an actual birth date..
