Hi Kenneth, ScotlandsPeople is the website you need.
http://scotlandspeople.gov.uk/
It is a pay to view website.

Births/Census are available after 100 years,
Marriages after 75 years,
and Deaths after 50 years. So you may be lucky with the deaths.

If you get the death certificate of William Greenhill if it was known,his parents names will be on it plus the miaden name of his mother,this you could follow up by seeking a mariage for his parents in Gt Brittian or Scotland.

Do you have access to Ancestry? William's WW1 record is on there. Only one child is listed, Evelyn Elizabeth, b 19/2/1913 in Rhynd (sounds Welsh!).

He was a gamekeeper, living at The Lodge, Berths(?) Park, Perth

Hi Potty
Not on Ancestry, Rhynd Lodge is in Fife Scotland, it is on a country estate so could well have been William's place of work.

Ken

Frank has posted Evelyn and Mary Ann's death registrations above (Nos 1 and 7).

Evelyn's is a possible but given that Mary Ann's contains her maiden name (Ayres) it looks like a definite. You should be able to view the images on scotlandspeople.

Hi Ken,

Go into http://scotlandspeople.gov.uk/ and register, then purchase 30 Credits at a cost of £7.00.

In Statutory Register Deaths enter surname of Greenhill, leave christian name blank.
Choose Female, Perth and date range from 1951 to 1955.

At a cost of 1 Credit you will be shown the above set of deaths with each result having a VIEW button.
At a cost of 5 Credits, click on VIEW which allows you to view, download, or save, a copy of the certificate.

You can of course vary any search by changing the details you require and will be told how many records are available before you pay to look at the results.

Any search results, certificates etc are all retained on the website to be recalled at no further charge whenever required.

Just don't forget your Username (Usually your e-mail address) and your Password (Which is CASE SENSITIVE !!! )

Bertha Park Farm and Bertha Park Lodge are at the following postcode....just Google "The Lodge, Bertha Park, Perth", for very clear Google street photos.

Also Google "Perth PH1 3EQ " for the farm and lodge together.
