Find Ancestors

I seem to be stuck again lol finding the father of James Dobbie Reid dob 1850 who was Married to Margaret Scott in Stonehouse lanarkshire 1882.
His father who I am looking for is called John Reid and his dob may be about 1811? he was a draper.
I dont know whether he was born in Scotland or England. Can anyone do a look up in England please.
John married Jane Dobbie in 1813 Dalserf, scotland

Where was James born?

Can you check your dates........you say John married Jane in 1813...............yet you say he was born in 1811?

You have all been so quick I cant get my head round it LOL I believe this is the correct family though.Let me see if I can understand LOL. James d reid was born 1850 and they were married in 1882 sorry about the error

John D reid was born in lanarkshire. My mum says stonehouse, larkhall area

I am so happy as you seem to have found loads. Its a pity that John Reeds parents are not given and where about in England he came from.

Take your time to study the info................then if you think it's the right John........look on Scotlands people to see if there's a cert for the second marriage. If there is - his parents should be named.

BTW.........it was John's dates I was asking you to check......James's weren't a problem.

But it's all sorted itself out now, so no need to worry.

The birthplace for James on 1851 is Larkhall, so it does seem that it's the right family.................

I am really pleased and so will my mum be. Thanks to everyone

This is the confirmation..........

*Mother in Law' in 1861

Your a star Flick, Can I just ask one thing what does the Mother in Law 1861 refer to please

John & Margaret's children........unfortunately, the baptism of Jane rules out the possibility of your being able to get a marriage cert.............

Reid, British Isles
Father: John , Mother: Margaret WEIR
Exact Spelling: Off

1. ROBERT REID - International Genealogical Index

On 1861 Barbara Anderson is living with the family......recorded as John's mother in law.

She was also with the family in 1841.................and she was Jean Dobie's mother, as per Jean's baptism record.

It is brilliant that you have given me another name ... barbara. Another lead hopefully.

John Reid, died 4/5/1887 in Larkhall, 1st wife Jane Dobbie, 2nd wife Margaret Weir, his parents were William Reid and Margaret Haddow, the informant was his son William Reid.

There is an extracted marriage on the IGI of William Reid and Margaret Haddow, they married in Lanark on 16/11/1800, it is also on SP, on the IGI also their are 4 children born to them, none of them being John.
