      There is confusion here as on Charles death certificate, Sept 27, 1947, it is stated he was a Glassworks Engineer and married to Irene Batterbee - when at New Registry House, 2005, I found a marriage cert. as 1917 but I cannot find that on Scotlands People and I didn't print a copy when at New Registry House, was out of time hw
