Yes, I have managed to trace the rest of the family. I had tracked a lady named Jessie Livesey who married an Alexander Pauline. To be honest I thought with 100% certainty that she would be the mother of the bride originally but just shows how wrong you can be.

Rab:

Do you by any chance have any more info on the Margaret Anderson Piggott in this image? My ggg grandmother was Margaret Anderson and one of her granddaughters married a Thomas Piggot (one "t" as far as I know) in Glasgow in 1862.

I'm not too sure. Margaret Anderson Piggot(t) was born on 15/07/1860 in Forfar. She was married on 10th June 1881 in Forfar. Although Piggott is spelled with a double T on her son's marriage certificate on her own marriage certificate it is actually a single T. Her parents were James Piggot and Isabella Alexander Anderson.

It is a strange coincidence but I can't see any connection- as yet.

Thanks for that. I can't see a connection either. It looks as if the "Anderson" came from a different source than my Margaret Anderson.
