Looking at the post by Shirley at 1043 of the 1939 register -
Jane Anne Marr - could this be the marriage of daughter Jane Young in Scotland?

You need Scotlands People which isn't a subs site

You can do free searches though for basic info

Looking for further info on Mary Ann Wightman. (anything after 1911 - especially her death).

B Mary Ann Foster 1860.

Marries William Baty Young 1883 in Wigton, Cumberland, and has 2 daughters, Jane 1885 & Frances 1889.

William dies 1889 in Cockermouth, Cumberland aged 30 years.

Mary remarried to Luke Wightman 1892 also in Cockermouth and has a son William Wightman b 1891 in Cockermouth.

I have the family in 1901 & 1911 Census living in Cathcart, Renfrewshire, Scotland.

As I don't have access to Scottish records anymore (for now anyway) I was wondering if anyone can let me know what happen to them after this, such as any deaths, marriages etc.

Can't seem to find anything on English side, so maybe they stayed in Scotland.

Any clues most welcome. Thanks.
