Angus Campbell/Catherine Matheson
« on: Thursday 29 December 05 03:41 UTC (UK) »
Can somebody help please. I'm new to Scottish research and feel I'm going around in circles.
Ive been looking for a marriage record for Angus Campbell to Catherine nee Matheson. Not sure of the year My great grandmother (their daughter) was born 9 May 1869 Balchladich Stoer. Have no idea whether she was first born or not or whether she had other siblings.
I found a marriage record for Angus Campbell and an Ann Matheson at Stoer 23 Feb 1856. Is it possible for Ann on her marriage cert to then be Catherine on her daughters birth cert?

Any help most appreciated

Stop looking folks. Smiley
Ive just discovered the original birth certificate online for great grandma and she was born Catherine Matheson not Campbell. She was the illegitimate daughter of Catherine Matheson and Angus Campbell. So no marriage of these two, but their appears to have been some paternity suit against Angus Campbell as Catherine's name changed to Campbell at some stage.
Somebody wouldn't know where Id find out this info by any chance.

Thanks

I wonder if we have a family connection.
My great great grandfather was Angus Cambell who was born in Sutherland and died in England in 1882 aged about 65.
He was at some time a soldier because my great grandmother Barbara Ann Campbell  was born around 1840 in Strirling castle where he was based. I found the census records for Stoer and thought there might be some connection. Can you help in any way.

My Angus Campbell was a Seaman  so would doubt very much that there would be any connection from that point alone.
Other than that I know nothing else about my Angus. Sorry cant be of any help.

Regards
