I can't believe my bad luck.....

2 Hugh MacDonalds with wives called Mary Campbell both in the same area and both with a son called Hugh born around the same time.

I,m back !! :D

Yes is would say you have the wrong Hugh and Mary nee Cambell. and the birth i posted is your Hugh with parents Hugh & Mary married Jan 1881, he was a Iron Ship Fitter so similar to a Ships plater
I did look at it on Scotlands People cos i was curious so I can print off the birth for you save you buying it again .
The census ones Maureen posted were the ones I saw.

You say two Hugh & Mary.s nee Cambell each with a son Hugh born c 1898 but i would disagree with that ,as I have said the Mary born c1840 would be too old to have a child in the 1890.s

Yes PM me your email address. :D

Edit : Feeling generous so done the marriage too <and he is an Iron Fetter journeyman so def your Hugh & Mary
