Don't mean to swamp you - but if you are able to, I am desperate to find the maiden name of the mother of Agnes Watson (born 1832 at either Duns or Glasgow) Agnes was married to John Burns b 1829 (Perthshire). Agnes's mother was Mary (birth date 1807 from census records) and Ive narrowed it down to either Mary McDougall or Mary Clinkscales but one has the right birthdate for the mary and wrong one for Agnes and the other vice versa. I cannot find birth details for Agnes (which will have Mary's maiden name) or a marriage cert for Agnes and John which would give Agnes's father and I could narrow it down from there. Mary may have been married to an Alex but need that marriage cert to confirm. To make me more confused - on the birth certificates of Agnes's children she is down as Agnes Watson or Stewart - so unless she was married to a Stewart before John I have no idea where the Stewart bit came from. She had her first child William to John Burns in 1856 (when she was 24) so not much time for multiple marriages. A 1851 census may shed some light on it. Anyway. Sorry to ramble on - this one bit of the family has obsessed me for 2 weeks now with little movement. Its become a bit of a murder/mystery sort of thing trying to figure out who the mystery stewart was and where they went! Any help appreciated but if your swamped I'll just keep on investigating. Thanks Sandi

Hello Anne Yes please, if I could ask for help with my DANIEL McCOWAN b.c1854 Do you have '61 and '71 Scotland census?? I have him mistranscribed on 1891 in West Derby with wife EMMA ?? and their 3 sons Andrew b.c1883. My Granddad William Lewis b.1885. Daniel Hugh b.c1891 (sons born in Bootle, Lancashire) Here are the details from the census; Name: Mcgowan, Daniel (should be McCowan) Age in 1891: 37 (unable to read age on the image) Relation: Head Gender: Male Where Born: SCT Name: Mcgowan, Emma Age in 1891: 33 Relation: Wife Gender: Female Where Born: WLS On the 1901 census Emma is a widow and place of birth is Holyhead, Anglesea Wales. If you could find me a place of birth/birth record/other relatives for Daniel McCowan in Scotland, or any other info on him, I would be most thankful. BTW Daniel was down as 'Sailor' 'Seas' Oldest son was born 1883, so I presume they were married 1882 but I don't know where. Thankyou Anne :o) ...Babz
