Hi, I am trying to find some direct family details for a John Jenkinson born around 1930 Edinburgh died 13/3/1972 Australia. I believe that he had two sons, one daughter and his parents were William Jenkinson and Sarah Salvona. I have checked on Ancestry not much on there about his immediate family

regards
Ian

Find his birth on Scotland’s People website. When the situation eases, you will be able to purchase a copy cert for confirmation of parents’ names

Have you tried looking on SP? I gave you the link.

He could, of course, have married anywhere................................

Getting his death cert is your best bet. Some info simply isn't avaialble without cost

She and William Jenkinson married 1929, as already posted.

Possibly a child born before marriage ???

The 1950 marriage to Joseph Brown could be that child's marriage, rather than a remarriage for Sarah 1909.

The State library of South Australia is contactable - says by phone or a Live chat at the click of a button - the Ask a Librarian Service. (I recently obtained a death cert. through their Victoria equivalent for a fee).

https://www.slsa.sa.gov.au/ask-us

They may be able to look at ERs for you which may throw up names of anyone at the same address.

South Australia appears not to have records as up to date as other States online.

No ER's available, but it would appear he was married looking at the death record.

That makes sense about the later marriage - there is the extra initial which I overlooked
