Hi just wondering if anyone can help please. I'm just starting on the challenge of tracing family and I'm already stuck!!! I'm trying to trace my grandfather who I believe was born in either Edinburgh or Aberdeen, but when I search the records they never provide any Scottish options. Can anyone point me in the right direction of how I can find when he was born and obtain a certificate please. I think he was born c1930. |

A Scottish b.cert has parents' marr details, which helps trace that. |

Thanks for your help - i've ordered a couple of certificates - one english birth and one english marriage - hopefully from there I can get more information. |
