hi scotmum  :)

the IGI/family search has elizabeth hutton born 6th july 1838 , baptised 18th july 1838 perth perth , parents john hutton and elizabeth JAGGER

and

there is also a marriage that may match(john and elizabeth) 13th nov. 1822 perth perth on here

ev

Long time coming, but thought you might like an update on how your help panned out, ev.

The marriage and birth would seem to be correct and I have now placed Elizabeth and her widowed dad John in Dundee in 1861 (she married in Dundee in 1870). Her dad, it seems, was minister of http://canmore.rcahms.gov.uk/en/site/176570/details/dundee+dudhope+crescent+road+catholic+apostolic+church/ and as well as being listed as a minister in the 1861, I also now have him likewise listed on an 1872 directory for Dundee too as Minister of Catholic Apostolic Church and address as Dudhope Crescent.  Elizabeth's son married a side shoot of a sibling in one of my lines, so whilst not directly linked to me, as always, it was interesting to follow through and discover more about all those little off-shoots from branches.

ps looks like John decided to remarry in his later years as he appears on 1871 with a wife, Jessie.
