Jane Nicol Irvine named after  Rachels mother, Jane Robson
William and Rachels first child Jane born in Mar 1818 and they married 21 months later on 15dec1819 in the parish of Roberton
Jane Irvine was born on 9 mar 1818 at Milsington,in Roxburghshire and was baptised at nearby Roberton on 16apr1818.The baptism record shows that jane was ' a natural Child',confirming that her parents were not married at that time.her fathers occupation was recorded as labourer.
Jane moved north to Ross-shire with her family and on 21jan1841 at Lochbroom,she married William Nicol,a shepherd who had been born in Caithness in 1808.In 1856 William and Jane immigrated to New Zealand,arriving at Port Chalmers,Dunedin,Otago on board the "Strathmore" on Oct 2nd 1856
