Gadget .That sounds possible .I can see MATHER could be misheard as MAGDAR
Annie : I know William Carruthers was alive and living in Gretna in 1846 with his daughter Agnes and her son Stewart Scott (Carruthers) . Agnes was tried for killing her new born baby in 1846 and sent to Tasmania. William was the toll-bar keeper at Gretna at the time. I'm trying to sort out is what happened to William .He was said to be 69 on the 1841 census so may have died around this time . No sign of him on the 1851 census. There is a William Carruthers at Rigg Toll Bar in 1857 but i can't be sure if this is William snr or jnr . Lots of work to do
