Find Ancestors

I have the years of birth and deaths of my father, grandfather and great grandmother but I can't find out where they were born or find them on a census. All three are buried in the same grave. I can't find any details of my grandmother only the second wife of my grandfather Samuel Stott l really could do with some help.
Many thanks.
Brenda nee Stott

If you would like to give their names and the details that you have we could see if we can find anything for you.

Kempina....

There may be 3.5m Samuel Scotts, but it is Stott that Brenda is looking for!

Brenda, was your father by any chance born in Ireland? And did he die at a young age?

Received message from Brenda

"Hi Marie Celeste. I cant be sure that my father Wilfred David Stott was born in Ireland but i always had the impression that he was. He was born in 1912 and he died in Birkenhead in 1938.So he was very young.
Many thanks.
Brenda "

This is what I had found:

Ireland, Civil Registration Births Index, 1864-1958
Name: Wilfred David Stott
Date of Registration: Jul-Aug-Sep 1911
Registration district: Belfast
Volume: 1
Page: 353
FHL Film Number: 101074

I'd found his marriage in 1933 and then the 1938 death that Brenda mentioned.

Brenda, do you know if your father had any older siblings? If so, we might be able to trace the family on the 1911 Irish census.

Also, you mention Samuel Stott's second wife - what can you tell us about her?

Clara nee Goodman was his second wife. They had two sons Harry and Jack. By his first wife( I want to find her details) they had my father Wilfred David And his brother Cyril. My fathers date of birth I found on his grave stone.

So this is your great grandmother's death?

Was she married please? Do you have a father's name and occupation from Samuel's marriage certificate to Clara?

Maybe Cyril's birth?

I would think that you really need a copy of your father's birth certificate to get his mother's name and maiden name.

I have no further details of Clara. I am more interested in my birth family. Thanks again Brenda

Yes, I understand that Brenda but your Grandfather's marriage certificate to Clara will give his father's name if known.

Your father's birth certificate will name his mother.

How do you know that your Great grandmother was Mary A Stott please?

I do think that you need to buy those certificates if you don't have them or any information found may be inaccurate.

It is looking as if my family originate from Belfast. will get fathers birth certificate
