I am researching my Parker line from Falkirk.....I know this is the Midlothian listserv, but my question is generic. I have Euphemia Ronald marrying Robert Parker in both Larbert and Falkirk, Stirling, in 1819. I find them in the 1841 census for Falkirk. Euphemia was born about 1801; however, I can't find a birth for her. Robert's parish was Larbert, and Euphemia's parish was Falkirk. Based on the names of their children, I have found appropriate named parents for Euphemia, but no baptismal record. The logical parents are John Ronald and Margaret Turnbull. The marriage records do not give parental information. I can't find a death record in Scotland for her either. I have found a person that I think is her, in the 1871 and 1881 censuses for England, but don't see a death record in the BMD records either. If she had been born prematurely or if her health were fragile at birth, is it possible that she may have been christened at home, rather than in a church? I have found some birth records listed in Scotlandspeople for this couple that have no child's name listed, and are available only by ordering them. Can anyone tell me if I am likely to find concrete information on those records IF I do purchase them? I understand that they will each cost 10 euros, which is alot to pay if there is no info on them, so I'd like to be prepared for what, if anything, they might contain. Why wouldn't they be available in the customary way? Thanks in advance for suggestions. I have tried alternative spellings of the name, and I have considered the possibility that Euphemia was the middle name of one of the girls otherwise named. Mary

Thank you....I didn't have the earlier Eupham Ronald, and since there is a Rachel amongst the children of Robert Parker and Euphemia Ronald, there may indeed be a connection. --- On Sun, 5/9/10, hiflyte <hiflyte@telus.net> wrote: From: hiflyte <hiflyte@telus.net> Subject: Re: [MIDLOTHIAN] Parker, Ronald To: midlothian@rootsweb.com Date: Sunday, May 9, 2010, 9:54 AM Some entries that may assist you.
