    • YOUNGSON - In loving memory of our dear husband, father and grandpa, George Robb Youngson, who passed away August 13th, 1954
      We shall sit and think of him when we are all alone.
      For memory is the only .........[illegible]
      Like ivy on the withered oak
      While all other things decay.
      Our love for him will still keep green and never fade away.

      Hi,

      Thank you for your e-mail. I've taken a look at the entry and the
      writing in the left hand column does not appear to refer to an RCE, but
      rather to a 'Clerical Error' in one of the columns, although the writing
      is so faint I am unable to make out which column. I hope this is of some
      help.

      Regards,

      Roslyn Robertson

      Issue: Incorrect/Illegible Image (cannot read)
      Problem: Concerning the image of a marriage
      1889 on the 27th day of July at Hillocks, Udny, Aberdeenshire, between
      Robert Youngson, groom, and Helen Barclay, bride:

      There is writing in the left-hand margin next to this certificate that I
      am unable to read. I would appreciate it if you would advise me what
      the writing says and if there is a "Register of Corrected Entries"
      available, should the same be referred to in the illegible portion.

      Thank you for your assistance.
