Hi Marie: Perhaps you already know this. The following entry of a marriage of a couple with the name you noted about the right time is as follows from the LDS IGI web site which you can find at: http://www.familysearch.org/Eng/Search/frameset_search.asp?PAGE=igi/search_IGI.asp Alexander GLASS Sex: M Marriage(s): Spouse: Mary MURDOCH Marriage: 16 Mar 1848 Bellie, Moray, Scotland Source Information: Batch number: Dates Source Call No. Type Printout Call No. Type M111264 1820-1854 0990987 Film 6902633 Film A 'parent search' shows these 10 children entries: You searched for: British Isles Father: Alexander Glass, Mother: Mary Murdoch Exact Spelling: Off [refine search] Prepare selected records for download Results: International Genealogical Index/British Isles (10 matches) Select records to download - (50 maximum) 1.

Jessie GLASS - International Genealogical Index Gender: F Birth: 15 Jun 1869 Bellie, Moray, Scotland These entries show specific birth dates; and your list does not mention Jessie, the 10th listing above. I have an 1855 Scottish birth record for a relative and the amount of detail is quite extensive. Other years apparently do not give as much, so if you had to choose which one to spend your money on, that would be the best. Of course you can look at the microfilms quite cheaply at your local Family History Centre. If you could find the death records of your couple, you might find additional information that would help trace their parents. Good luck tracing your family.
