Hi,

Would anyone have any more info on this Jock Mathieson as I believe he may have married my great Auntie Catherine Taylor.

John Alexander Mathieson married Catherine Taylor in 1928 at Kilwinning and on the wedding certificate his occupation was professional footballer.

I believe they both died in Saltcoats and probably stayed there.

Any info on them or descendants would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
