A lovely stroke of luck and a complete mystery - Help!
« on: Sunday 13 July 08 14:53 BST (UK) »
I have just found the death cert of my 5x great grandmother Jean Carson.  She died in Hutton in 1855. Wonderful! Her death cert gave the names of 4 children I didn't know about.
I have managed to track down 3 of them, but am completely stuck on the last one.
Is anyone up to a challenge?

Margaret Moffat (age given on her mother's death cert in 1855 - 42)
I cannot find her on any census returns, or a likely death on SP.  Also rather a lot of Margaret Moffat marriages, and none looking very likely.

She must be somewhere on the 1841 and 1851 at least.

Any help appreciated.
