Can anyone help????? I am looking for a marriage between William Rutherford and Jessie Douglas in Edinburgh Area, most likely and around about 1820 maybe earlier or later.

Janet is often the birth name of Jessie in Scoltand. I had an Aunt of the same name. It's also on IGI.

Margaret I have a reference to Helen the one marrying on the certificate I sent you and she was born in Roxburgh. So this would all add up. It must be Janet. Thanks

is there a scottish census for 1851????? If so I could then see if there is a Janet and William Rutherford with a daughter Helen.
