Birth - Margaret Jack Banff
« on: Sunday 16 March 08 11:21 GMT (UK) »

Hi List

I am unable to locate a birth record for Margaret Jack born in Fordyce Banff in approx. 1850. Her parents were Lewis Jack and Margaret Fraser married 24 March 1849 Speymouth Moray. The 1861 census at Kintore Aberdeen has her with her parents and siblings aged 11 yrs. I have searched Familysearch.org and Sp but cannot locate her.
Her father Lewis was born in Avoch R&C so I looked there. I also searched in Banff and Moray but...no luck Sad

Please could sks help me find this elusive birth?

There is also a marriage banns entry for parents:

MARGARET FRASER  Marriages:Spouse: LEWIS JACK    
Marriage:  09 MAR 1849  Fordyce, Banff, Scotland

This fits well with what Ev has found and implies daughter Margaret was probably born as indicated by the census in Fordyce just before parents' marriage.
