I'm just trying to get closer to John and Catherine - no marriage found so far and with children b. Glasgow, it's difficult to pinpoint births. I don't see variations of Catherine McKechnie b. circa 1855 Islay or Bowmore or Argyll on any of the pre-1881 censuses
When/where did John , junior, die? I'm wondering if the mother's maiden surname on his marriage cert was wrong.
I'm having difficulties finding any sib who might be a guide.
