Dallas,
Had a look at my records and I have Isabel(la) Mearns's mother as a Chrisitina Ritchie who was married John Mearns, which is slightly different from what you have

I assume that I got Isabella's parents from her death in 1887.

I will check that the next time I am at Register House in Edinburgh.

I had forgotten all about Rootschat, but was at the Who Do You Think You Are event in Glasgow yesterday and at one of the talks it was mentioned.  I did manage to find my login.

My McBay connection is on my mother side, Isabella Young McBay was my great grandmother, she married John Simpson in 1881.  Like quite a few others in these posts I to have loads of McBay information, am lucky that I work in Edinburgh and visit Register House frequently.

Oh and Mike I am shamed to say I have an unread message from you - from 2008!!!

Promise to do better now.

Nice to meet another with Mcbays in their family tree. Alexander and Christian are my 5xGG, my line is through their son Alexander.  Have quite a few registrations of the McBays if you are interested

Regards
John
