Where is the birth of Alexander John McDonald?

He married in 1877 so something is very wrong.

Is that the right death for Alexander John who married in 1877 ?

 

[DaveHam9]

These two are ok, don't know about the rest.

Marriage 5 Jul 1877/C0173 McDonald Alexander John - Nicholls Lizzie

Birth 17 Apr 1878/C00829 McDonald Donald Rankin - Alexander John - Lizzie Nichols

Death for Lizzie?

Dave

 

[Bootzy]

seems that following Ellie's post - wrong Mcdonald...

Marriage in 1877 then had Donald in 1878... Ellie's post has death for a Alexander in 1921 so followed that....

 

[DaveHam9]

Not easy Val.

I'm stuck. Have not found a death for Flora yet. Or a birth for Alexander or a death for Alexander and Lizzie.

Thanks Val.

If it is the 1923 one then there is a daughter who married a JAMES but I can't find that marriage so far - Mrs W F ... her initials or his?

Marriage 23 Mar 1910/B8631 Cathleen Elizabeth McDonald - Willie Francis James

Now need her birth and death. Can't find either.

Mrs A J so it would seem to be Alexander. ??
