I'm trying to find my paternal grandfather. I went home at lunchtime and the 2 long awaited certs from Scotlands people had arrived but they haven't helped me at all and don't know what to do next. I have very limited info; his name and an idea when he was born from his marriage cert to my Gran. he was scottish and returned to scotland after my dad was born.
I ordered the only death in Glasgow for the name I have, unfortunatly it is not my grandfather.
I had also ordered as a back up my father's half brother's birth cert as I thought this would help tracing the first marriage - it has but they married in England not scotland so the English marriage cert won't tell me anymore than I know as I know his father's father's name and his occupation.
I have credits on Scotlands People but no idea what to look for now
I haven't posted his name as he was born in about 1912 and as I'm not 100% sure he is dead thought I'd leave it out.
All suggestions welcomed
