Until 1929 women in Scotland could marry as young as 12 yrs old, but rarely ever did (nrscotland.gov.uk/registration/g…). Anyone know a *reliable* source for average age that women actually did marry in Scotland in 18th & 19th centuries, pls? Am struggling to find one. #AncestryHour
Thinking about it, I've got a massive Scottish family tree which would help work out ages at marriage, if only I could extract the data from a gedcom into a spreadsheet to do the analysis. #AnecstryHour
I have a partial answer to my question from my own family tree, showing age at marriage of people mostly from Ross-shire, Banffshire & Aberdeenshire. The software doesn’t have options to cleanse data (eg. remove marriages outside scotland, or those where birth year is estimated). Image
