Hi Pat
Have you checked Jane's Death certificate to see if her parents names are listed consistently?
The IGI has a christening 3rd September 1839 Post of Monteith to Daniel Ferguson and Margaret Mcleran
Have you viewed the original census or are you going by someone else's transcription for the names?

The IGI also shows more children to this couple* in Port of Montieth including a son Daniel b. 1837 which would fit with your census family. The mother's surname spelling varies.
Daniel 1837
Jane 1839
Marion 1842
Archibald 1846
Margaret 1851
If you check the 1851 census you might be able to see if this family matches up with the one you found in the 1841 census.

* Daniel Ferguson and Margaret Mclaren/Mcleran

Hi Kirsty - Yes, have her death cert, parents are Daniel Ferguson and Margaret McLaren, and yes other census all check out, it was just the 1841 that has me stumped addmitedly it is an A****ry transcription ?? may have to wait till I can afford more credits on SP to check it out on the original, it still seems strange tho'they should have transcribed as David ?? when his son is Daniel !!plus the added fact that McKay's, McGregors and the Fergusons all on the same page.
For other Ferguson hunters..
Children of John Ferguson and Jane McGregor.
Peter 1822, Joh 1823, Janet 1824-1891, Mary 1825, John 1826, Christian 1826 (twins) Alexander 1826, John 1827-1894, Alexander 1830, Isabella 1831, Margaret 1833, Duncan 1834, Colin 1837-1891, Alexander 1840.
14 in all, the poor woman must have been exhausted.
Where I have listed death dates I have further info, and would assume that repeat of names the children died young.
Al children born Kincardine.
Regards patvp

I'm looking for Donald Ferguson, born Blair Atholl about 1828, married Mary and moved to Liverpool. He had three daughters Mary, Catherine, and Margaret. The 1891 census gives his name as Donald, place of birth and age, and his first grandson was called Donald, but Mary's marriage certificate gives his name as Daniel. I haven't found records about him other than the 1891 census. He was a coachman. Maybe one of the readers of this thread has information.
