Thanks for the info. dishep,  great research. There is a lot to absorb and check up on, but I will enjoy working on it. Are these your ancestors  also?

Ah , perhaps I've got the wrong family with the1841census. My thoughts were that the fact that she was stated as being previously named  as Graham on my ancestors death cert. and I found a marriage for Marg. Leitch and Dugald Graham in 1822, it would have put her at the correct age to be able to marry. Whereas she would have been too young to  marry had she been born in 1811. Also on this census   there was a Dugald aged 20 who I thought might have beed a son she had with Dugald Graham, but it is so easy to follow the wrong path. You will find the 1841 census under the name of McMartine  which I think was wrongly transcribed, but I could be wrong. Not sure why they went from McMartin to Martin. All very confusing,  but I enjoy the detective work.

Yes it's very possible that there are more. I have nothing on Anne, can I ask where you found the info.?

I want to double check some dates because on the 1841 census Margaret was born 1841. I never completely trust the dates given on the certs.as I have found they can be incorrect.

I'm from Hugh Martin/Flora Crawford, John Martin/Margaret Leitch, John Martin/Margaret Morrison, John Martin/Christina Allen, George Martin/Matilda McIntyre.(my grandparents). My father was also a John Martin.

I also have the death cert. Stating Donald Mcorquodale as informant.  I have a marriage cert. For Marg. Martin and Hugh Mcorquodale-1860, parents of Margaret were John Martin and Margaret Leitch, so that ties up.

I can't find a birth cert. for this Margaret but she is on a census for John and Margaret in1841.

I have records for 6 births.... Mary 1793, Donald 1795, Ann 1798, Angus 1802, John 1806 Archibald 1816, but for some reason I don't have one for Margaret. In my records I have her born in 1801.

Something else of interest,  on the death cert. of my g.g. grandfather John Martin it states that his parents were John Martin and Margaret Martin, previously Graham, maiden name Leitch. I also have a record of Marriage of Marg. Leitch to Dugald Graham 1822.

Thanks, I've got most of the info. refferring to the line I'm following which is John Martin whose parents were Hugh Martin & Flora Crawford. I think that John Martin and Margaret Leitch had a 3rd child called Mary.
This is all from memory as I haven't had time to look at my files. I'm going to be away for a few days but I'll dig them out when I get back. If you want any info. re my particular line I have quite a bit.
