Hello Lee,

Extract from the IGI -

Marriages:
Spouse: JANET THOMSON
Marriage: 01 JAN 1820 Gorbals, Lanark, Scotland

There are children listed from a parent search but they are submissions.

Regards,
Annette M

If you put Jane, rather than Janet as the spouse on the IGI search, the record will not be found.

There is also an IGI birth for William Middleton parents Robert and Catharine Miller - 23 Jun 1825 Dundee. I don't think I would be much concerned that the name Brown is not included (it would be nice if it was there) - but would check other things e.g. Did your William have children called Robert and Catharine. If you can find a baptism for the parents, did one of them have a mother, maiden name Brown.

Hi Lee,
Do you know of any siblings for Janet (Jessie)? It may help find the family in Glasgow.
