    Had a new dna match this morning 182 cms which is higher than one of my 2nd cousins that I grew up knowing.... It must be a connection round about our great grandparents. I cant find the birth of S** Nisbet father Andrew Nisbet. He was born 1921. Cant find a marriage for him either that may help me connect. Really need to find Shelagh's birth mothers maiden name. They seem to be centered around Liverpool area.
    Anybody able to help please?

      can't see one in Hatfield, only a death. Andrew McCrorie Nisbet b 27 Sept 1921 wonder if this one was born in Scotland can't see on GRO

      only birth I can see for that date is in Northumberland similar spelling not exact match

      NESBIT, ANDREW COULTER
      GRO Reference: 1921 D Quarter in CASTLE WARD Volume 10B Page 681

      maybe Andrew not his birth name?

              There was another Andrew NISBET born 1921 in Falkirk but has no middle name and who appears to be the same Andrew NISBET who is the subject of 22 ancestry trees. This man died in Australia.

                Andrew and Marjorie married in Falkirk in 1948. As Andrew would have been 27/28 years old, there’s likely a war record to be found/applied for.

                    This is the marriage of Andrew McCrorie NISBET’s parents. This is viewable on ScotlandsPeople and will get you back another generation. The couple will also be on the 1911 census so you can find out some other older siblings for Andrew. Must have been a big family if they married 1907 and Andrew didn’t appear till 1921!

                        Census searches on SP are a right B as there are so few searchable fields. I looked first for a Thomas NISBET in Stirlingshire with a Mary on the same page (you can’t specify same household!) and got one result. The only match had a man with a middle name so then I tried looking for a 3-4 year old James with the same adult male and got zilch. Drop the age to 2-4 though and bingo! a match. The reference no. is the same on the search for Thomas with Mary as it is for the child and his father so I’m as confident as I can be that Thomas, Mary and James are not just on the same page, they are the in the same household. (see told you it was a B . I really hope that when the transcripts finally appear on either ancestry or FMP, they are searchable by their standards and not SP’s limited ones)

                            do you know if spelling is correct for S?. There are 3 births with alternative spelling in 40s and 50s, and there is a marriage in 76 with your spelling (can't see a birth though) - You can see marriage on ancestry

                            You can search on FMP to get a list.

                                  Thanks for giving me all this info but we were way off. lol. All because of a 2nd marriage. But I am really excited as this one is quite a close match. Her mum is my 2nd cousin. first time I have had a match from this line so fingers crossed there may be some pictures uncovered of my grandfather as I have still not seen any!!
                                  When you put the details of Thomas Smith Nisbet I did start to wonder if somebody was playing away from home as my dad is Thomas Smith. Strangely enough this link is with my dad but nothing to do with Nisbet..

                                      So the 1921 birth and 1948 marriage of Andrew McCrorie NISBET in Falkirk are not the right man and the one ancestry tree where he is married to Marjorie BRYSON is wrong?

                                        There is an adoption involved so I think that may be the adoption name they had on their tree. First adoption case I have come across on my dads side. I dont think it was a baby adoption as she said it was a young age....
