Can anyone help find information about my G Grandmother Christina Barber nee Wilson b abt 1862 Scotland
she is on 1891 census with husband John BARBER b abt 1853 Scotland
3 children Andrew b abt 1888 London
John b abt 1889 Birmingham
My Nanny Christina b 22/10/1890 Aston Manor
John Barber snr died 15/12/1898
On the 1901 Census Christina snr is with Thomas Roberts b Manchester it says she is married
I cannot find any married certificate or death certtificate for her
We have no information re where they came from in Scotland so cannot go further back and cannot find my Nanny on the 1911 census although she married my Grand father John French on 2/9/1911 at St. Pauls Church West Smethwick.
Sorry this is a bit complicated but can you help
Chris

Do you have a certificate to confirm that the maiden name was Wilson?
I cant see a marriage for them, not even on Scotlands people. There is a tree on Ancestry that has the family have you seen that?
parkhouse_1
That has a census in 1871 in Clewer Berkshire
Cranbournre Terrace,
William Wilson, head, 44, Upholster, Scotalnd
Margaret, wife, 44, Scotland
William, son, 17, upholster, London
Christina, 9, Scotland
John, son, 8, London
1861 Census has a family that could be possible to follow back? Transcribbed as it is
89, Carrick Street, Glasgow, Lanarkshire
William Wilson, head, 35, Uppotslew, Glasgow
Margaret, wife, Glasgow
Marian, daur, 12, Forfar, Arbroath
Jane, daur, 10, England

The Ancestry parkhouse_1 is me and the connection is only guess work
I cannot find a marriage certificate for Barber and Wilson but I have my Grandmothers birth cert which confirms the Wilson surname the problem is Scotland is a big place and there are thousands of Barbers and Wilsons
The Barber connection I am fairly certain of that is on the Scotlands People site 1871 Census
John Barber was found with his family Midlothian Dalkeith aged 18 which would be right b 1853 and his job was a Moulder which would tie in but Christina Wilson no body know?
