Am I missing something? Surely we have to go with the Mary that was with Allan in the original census reference.  There was only a suspicion that she remarried.

I agree with Annie - sorry MR!  :)  

I don't think it does us any harm to have the vast majority of what you geniuses have found confirmed.  And if there are any differences with the nw details and what has been found, then they can be teased out.

I have been surprised quite how reluctant outsiders have been to join in this particular Challenge, when we have located a fair share of folk tracing different elements of the families.  

When I lay in my bath (its always nice to have an image, isn't it? :)) and conceived of the Rootschat Challenge, I little imagined we would be embarking on such an odyssey as this!

I don't think it spoils it to have alternative research available which confirms - or confounds - what's been found.

This is a fascinating family, isn't it?  

Particularly that Claude chappie... ;)

                   :)  Hi Guys,

   Back on track then, any chance we could see some of the voyages,
              or will they be on the new Web page for this thread?  8)

     Did I spot a ref to Blackheath, there was a Claude in Blackheath.... ::)

     Yes, I did and a ref to Malcolm, his family came from Lanark, so they did.  ::)

                  Gota go soon, have a good night all.   Lesanne.  ;D
