If he settled in Perth, Scotland and died after 1855 then his death registration will name his parents including his mother's maiden surname if the informant knew the details.

Hi Sheena

Do you have his birth year or any other details please. When you say 'married a girl from Perth', which 'Perth' in the world do you mention?
