Looking for Parents of John Stuart Strachan I from Bridgeport Connecticut!!
I know his parents are buried in Connecticut next to his brother Billy. I never knew them, and I don't know their names. My grandfather was born in 1945, if this helps. If I could get his parents names I could probably get a lot further in my personal research
Update 12/17:
I found out my great grandfather's name was William, but my dad couldn't remember his wife's name. She was of French decent however. Also that they moved from Thornton, Mar District in Scotland and came through Ellis Island

His name is John Stuart Strachan, and his Birthday specifically is April 9, 1945. I know both of his parents and his brother (probably named William as well, I think Billy was a nickname) all died young.
Does this look like your John S Strachan ? If so do you know who Heather M Strachan, Joyce C Strachan, Molly E Strachan are ? *** b 09 Apr 1945
