Please ignore my ramblings re the post on the step daughter - sometimes I get carried away - in fact maybe I should be carried away.
However - on a serious note, it is only by looking outside the box that sometimes we break down brick walls.herky

The certificates can be obtained from the New Jersey Archives - http://www.state.nj.us/health/vital/gen.shtml
You will need to check with them how payment can be made. There is no other way of obtaining the death certificate information.
I am sure Herky and Raven will agree, they are finding information which may or may not fit in at a later date - but first you need to confirm places of birth of your parents as well as the names of their parents.Elaine

I agree totally - one step at a time with confirmation with certificates. Without proof you could be attaching anyone to your tree.
Although it costs some money, there is no way to do a tree properly without some expenditure. if you get it wrong in the early stages then it will cost you more in the end.
Once you have confirmed your parents and the possible Scottish connection then I am very happy to help you.
At least the name is not Mackay - I have this name on 2 direct lines and it is a nightmare!
Good luck!herky

If your uncle is your mother's full brother then his birth certificate should have information on your grandparents.herky

Alright, so I need the information for both of my grandparents, and both of my parents, or just one or the other? I'm confused on what information I should ask for.

I know this is purely speculative - but there is only one family called Perritt from Scotland in the 1910 US census and they are living in New Jersey - I will shoebox it until we know what has been established as fact.herky

I have also been looking at a Scottish Perrit(t) family who sailed to US, I think 1892, and settle in New Jersey.
Holding back until we get more details from php111.herky

Diane Perritt (Perritt was her maiden name). I'm not really sure when was she born. I know she passed away in 1990.
Margret Perritt (grandmother), I'm not even sure of her history. I know she was deceased as of 12/5/96.
This looks like grandmother Margaret

Have a read of the helpful information at the top of this page about starting out. The GOLDEN RULES are
1. start with yourself and work backwards one step at a time
2. ask living relatives about the family before it might be too late
3. don't jump to conclusions or you might end up following the wrong family
4. have fun and expect to get totally addicted!!
