Stirlingshire / Re: Marshall - Kilsyth & Denny 1800's Brick wall

Thankyou for your reply Lady Jean,i do have a tree on ancestry under Beaver Jacobs family,i also have quite a bit of info I have collected,i have Agnes Burns nee Marshall's death record,she died in 1862 age 89. I did know when they were widowed often they go back to their maiden names,i noticed Mary Fleming nee Marshall did too,but in 1871 Mary was Mary Fleming again.I think she was with her son James Fleming in 1871 as a midwife,i thought I had saved it but havn't,so will find that again.
The other Agnes Marshall the one who didn't marry I found died 1859,before 1861 census,but hadn't saved her as she wasn't connected to me just yet. but I will try and find that again.

I also found both My Agnes and what I think her neice Mary Fleming nee Marshall both had grandchild marrying in 1897,they were Robert H Burns and Agnes Aitken Fleming,so there is a connection again with the two families. Just like the Janet Fleming in 1851 daughter of Will Walter Fleming and Mary Marshall,Janet is with my Agnes Burns nee Marshall family.
I can't wait to hear back from you when you find out a bit more from your cousin. Hope we can solve this one way or another,i just want to have the correct Agnes Marshall.
thankyou again Karen(NZ)

Stirlingshire / Re: Marshall - Kilsyth & Denny 1800's Brick wall

Hi,i am puzzled because with Mary Marshall born 1806 and married William Walter Fleming,that is correct,but where I am confused is in 1861 Mary is Mary Marshall with two children Matthew and James Fleming and Aunt Agnes Burns Nee Marshall(Agnes is my 4x grandmother who was widow of Thomas Burns a shoemaker. Agnes is Mary's aunt but Agnes father and mother are David and Janet Marshall nee Williamson,i know she had one brother John in 1768 Falkirk Stirlingshire.
David Marshall is a farmer as is recorded on Agnes Death record of 1862 Haggs Stirlingshire.
In 1851 we have Mary and William Walter Fleming's daughter Janet age 13 with my Agnes Burns nee Marshall family,so how can Agnes be recorded as Mary's aunt if Mary is daughter of Robert Marshall 1771,whose father was Robert who died in Jamaica. I am wondering if Robert snr is David Marshall's brother,as their is a record of two brothers Robert and David Marshall born 1737 and 1738 to a William Marshall and Mary Curray in st ninians Scotland,so please can anyone help me work this out. Agnes Marshall was born 1774 Falkirk Stirlingshire died 8 jul 1862 she was a publican,spirit retailer. cheers Karen
