Re: Philip(Scotland)

Hi and welcome to the FHUK forum.
Do you have a copy of the 1855 death cert for Andrew Philip ? Along with his parents names it should also give details of all his children and their ages , also if they had died it will also name them and give their age at death.
How old was Andrew when he died ?

Did he have a wife if so what was her name ?
Do you have him on the 1841/1851 census ?
Do you know where abouts in Angus he was born ?

Re: Philip(Scotland)

I can find only one baptism on IGI for Andrew Phillip with father John, no mothers name given.
25 Dec 1768 Murroes, Angus. This is approx 5 miles from Monikie.

Re: Philip(Scotland)

Glad to be of assistance William.
As you know the mothers name is not always recorded on baptisms. Not very helpful when there are a quite a few births with the same name and same fathers name born around the same time and area.
I have tried to look for the baptisms of John Phillip and Margaret Edward .
There are quite a few John Phillip baptisms in Angus but loads for Margaret Edward. Without the fathers name it is difficult to pin point.
Good luck with your research , I just wish I could help you further.
