Marriage- Alexander Cameron- Catharine Cameron. 13/1/1843, Duthil with Rothiemurchus, Inverness. (Granish)
children.
1) Margaret Cameron.b. 2/11/1843. (my g-g-grandmother). Married James Mouat- Edinburgh 1876.
2) Ann Cameron. b. 13/10/1845.
3) Duncan Cameron. b. 12/11/1847.
4) Catherine Cameron. b. 2/11/1849.
5)Elspet Cameron. b. 13/6/1852.
6) Alexina ? Cameron. b.abt 1854.
Have been unable to trace parents of Alexander or Catharine.
1851 census gives Alexanders age as 35 & place of birth as Inverallan.
Possible match= Alexander Cameron b. 06/12/1815, Inverallan & Alvie.
Parents= Alexander Cameron & Grace Adam.
Unable to confirm this. I dont know if headstones give parents names.?
Any help appreciated.

Hi Mouat
Did Alexander die just before 1855 and the start of official registration? In the family's 1861 entry wife Catherine shows as head.
I am wondering if daughter Alexina was actually registered as Jessie. There is this entry showing on IGI:
JESSIE CAMERON Birth:16 JAN 1855 Duthil With Rothiemurchus, Inverness
Parents:ALEXANDER CAMERON and CATHERINE CAMERON
The first year of official registration and certificates ran over two pages of the register with lots of additional information. If the right family, it might let you confirm some information about father Alexander perhaps.

Catharine Cameron is shown as a widow by the 1861 census .
Alexina's age is given as 6 so Alexander must have died between 1853 & 1861.
I can find no record of his death.
I guess Jessie could have been re-named following Alexander's death.
I have found individual records for this family on IGI although they aren't shown as related.
Have found Catharine & Elsie on 1891 & 1901 census, Avielochan.
Starting to wonder if there may be information on a family headstone.!!

Might be worth you having a look at that 1855 birth entry in Duthil for Jessie. It should confirm whether father Alexander was alive or deceased at the time of her birth. I cannot find a death entry for her which is what is making me think that Alexina may be Jessie.
If you can confirm that Alexander had died by January 1855 then at least you can stop hunting down death certificates on Scotlands People! Birth places for parents are often included on 1855 birth certs so it will hopefully also give you an opportunity to cross check with what Alexander put down on his 1851 entry.

Not sure about the possible birth entry you have found for Alexander with parents Alexander and Grace.
Have you noticed that at the same address where Alexander, Catherine and children are at in 1851 are also this family:
Anne Cameron 63 b. Inverallan, Invernessshire
Mary Cameron 33, b. Inverallan, Invernessshire
Anne Cameron 23 b. Duthil, Elginshire
Margt McDonald 6 granddaughter b. Duthil, Elginshire
Jane McIntyre 3, orphan, Rothiemurchus, Invernesshire
Address: Lagantighgown
I am wondering whether this household could be Alexander's mother and sisters. Ann also looks to be the name of Alexander and Catherine's second born daughter....
