Did she state that name as her mother?

She did, but at the time she "thought" that was her mother.  In actuality, she wasn't.  The identity of her mother was kept from her for some time after that.  Her mother was actually Nina who was unmarried.

I should add as well, that the Mary she listed was married twice, and I don't know which marriage Nina came from, if she was indeed her daughter.

The Mary in the census record was born 1896 so certainly old enough to have an illegitimate baby in 1911.

What was nina's real name?

Do you know when she died?

Unfortunately, I don't know the answer to either of those questions.  I always thought Nina was her real name.  My mother was named after her, and her name first name is Nina, middle name Hendry.

As for death...  Well I believe it was after I was born in 69 but I have no idea.  I'll ask my mom and see if she remembers.  I'll check out that one again though.

Who was Mary Dougal married to?

Do you know any of her husbands names?

I can't see a marriage for a female called Nina to anyone called Hendry or it's spelling variations.

Maybe SKS could check the 1911 birth for Maggie Dougal

I think Mary was married to Thomas, but memories seem to be fading around here. 

I've had no luck with the name Nina either.  I mean none, so I think you may be correct in saying that Nina wasn't her given name.  I wish my grandmother was still around because she might have been able to clear this up for me once and for all.

I know there's a Jim who's still in Scotland.  Maybe I'll have to write him a letter.

Who's SKS?

Looking at the Alec Duthart connection, he was born 1925 Cambusnethan and it looks like his parents were John Duthart and Martha Taylor who were married in Shotts 1917
