From www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk (there's a lot of good free info there - and the ability to do a degree of free searching - despite being a PPV site)
"Interchangeable names Some names are completely interchangeable e.g. Agnes and Nancy, Donald and Daniel. Jane could be recorded as Jean, Jessie or Janet".
Good luck with your searching.
Regards, Steve :O)

I’ve just looked again on IGI - and there are more children showing for David Bone & Janet Brown (Janet could be Jessie, also Jane or Jeannie). The are all born in Johnstone, Dumfries and fit in well with the wedding date as the first one is born the following year: William 1814; Adam 1817; James 1820. The naming of the first son, William, is an extra pointer to David being my Margaret’s brother. I know from Margaret’s death certificate that her father was William. Margaret gives her birthplace as Sanquhar, but that’s near enough for me and she was married at Kirkpatrick Juxta. Unfortunately the IGI entry for Walter Bone, born Hoddam 1828 is a submitted entry so needs more ivestigation. However, I forgot to mention, that the father of Marion Sandilands (wife of William Bone born abt. 1756) was called Walter and this could be how the name got into the family.
She also named one of her sons David. There is certainly some sort of connection. If not siblings, probably cousins. Can’t thow any light on emigration as I have concentrated on the descendants of my Margaret and John Moffat, who all stayed in Scotland. Her brother? John Bone married to Marion Moffat, also stayed in Scotland. They moved to Ayrshire around the Cumnock/Dalmellington area.
I’m going to be away for a couple of days, but when I come back I will try to sort out some more concrete evidence. As I said before, my research was in part unsubstantiated with a bit of guesswork thrown in and it would be good to see if we can settle it.

This message is mostly for Marian and Steve. Today, I finally got sorted out on Scotland's People and guess what I found. I put in Mary Bone, father David Bone, and came up with a Mary Bond, daughter of David Bond and Jannet Brown, in Hoddam, Dumfries (where other child Walter was born), born Dec 31, 1824 and baptised Jan 7, 1825. With all the other indicators that Mary was a child of David Bone and Janet Brown, and the closeness of the date of birth (on Canadian records, Jan 1, anywhere from 1824 to 1827), I think this clinches it. This is Mary Bone Bell, and the Mary born Sept 3, 1830 is my Mary, married to Francis wood. By the way, Marian, Betty sent me the death of Walter Bone, son of the late David Bone of Kirkpatrick Juxta, and he died in Huntsville, Missouri, March 2, 1878 in his 52nd year. You can see it (I hope) in these postings. Peggy
