Catherine Burns-Briggs born 1846c 1st marriage to Andrew Sloan 31/12/1867 Parents on this showing as John&Mary Briggs, ms Burns 2nd marriage to Robert Oliphant Paterson, 31/101890 Parents on this ...William&Catherine??, ms Henderson (I think) Her death cert has Briggs as the parents again. I've been unable to find a birth cert for her and i'm wondering if its because she had another surname. I have a copy of the 2nd marriage cert on my pc, is there anyway of attaching it or showing it!? If not, any websites that might help me read it would be great...any help would be great! Thanks
