Most likely but I would think there should still be a birth certificate.  I know she was buried in Burntisland so maybe I will get in touch with the cemetary there and see if there might be any information on her gravemarker.

Hi

Looking at the freeCEN website , the 1841 Census transcription only has 2 Jack's in Abbotshall
Margert(Eliza?) age 5 that you already have , and a William Jack age 8 living with Dicksons

I wonder if there is a connection between them ?

Thanks jac2 & ev.  I had a thought and I am wondering if Eliza may have been adopted.  Maybe something happened to her parents.  I am going to look into Margaret's parents and siblings and maybe that may solve the mystery.

Jac2 - that Margaret that you gave me the info for is actually the first child of Margaret & William Anderson.  Thank you very much.
