If you know he fathered six children, you must have some idea of when they were born................. There is no record on any of the Scottish censuses of an Andrew Fyfe in Hamilton........... Reg

Where have you had the name Andrew Fyfe from? Who was he, what relation to you is he? You must have some idea when he married or was born if not where. You need his marriage cert to find out WHEN he was born, will give you somewhere to start. Sam x

You need to give more info than that for people to help. Who is Andrew Fyfe, when was he born - roughly - what are the kids names, the wifes name, what was his occupation. You work backwards from the solid facts you have. Ill bump up the Tips for Newbies for you.
