Margee...

I have several instances in my Scottish line of surnames being used as middle names and they are nearly all grandmothers or great grandmothers. Very few mothers although not unheard of.

Interesting, Kay.

May be nothing to do with Adam's family, but Winifred Stewart Bradley (who married the Thomas Turnbull Scott in that marriage record) was the stepdaughter of a John Turnbull.

DEATHS:

SCOTT: Troyville Blue House Lane, Washington on March 10th, Kenneth L. dearley beloved husband of Jane Amelia Scott. Interment at Usworth Cemetery on Monday 3.0 pm, leaving residence at 2.30. Friends kindly invited.

Not sure why he is listed as Kenneth in the death article- this appears to be him from the will calenders:

Name: Thomas Leithead Scott
Probate Date: 12 Apr 1938
Registry: Durham
Death Date: 10 Mar 1938
Death Place: Durham, England
Thomas Leithead Scott of Troyville, Blue House Lane New Washington county Durham died 10th March at Winterton House Sedgefield county Durham 12 April to Jane Amelia Scott widow and Thomas Turnbull Scott accountants clerk
-------------------------------------

And from the death indexes:
Name: Thomas L Scott
Birth Date: abt 1881
Date of Registration: Mar 1938
Age at Death: 57
Registration district: Sedgefield
Inferred County: Durham
Volume: 10a Page: 215

And his birth in the indexes:
First name(s) THOMAS LEITHEAD

Volume 10A Page 522

This happened in my family where my grandad's middle name was not his mother's maiden name, which I first assumed, but his grandmother;s maiden name.

Wonder where the Turnbull came from? Curious because it's my maiden name.

Ah that's brill Margee!

Yes, my father's middle name is Cooke and he told me the name was from his father's side. I reckon that is their marriage in 1911.

Thank you!

Could this be your grandfather's birth? Mother's maiden name was Cooke.

Thank you for the replies.

My grandfather's full name was Thomas Turnbull Scott (1912-1990) and his wife was Kathleen Mary Scott née Sheild (1918-2014) if this is any help?

Nor do I see the marriage of a Jane Amelia to a Scott, 1880-1915.

Welcome to the boards, Adam.

I can't see the birth of a Thomas Scott with mms Turnbull born 3rd quarter 1911- 4th quarter 1913.

Either his year of birth, or your guess at his mother's maiden name, is wrong.
Or Thomas wasn't his first name.
