I have sent Jim a PM with information.
Did you manage to find some confirmation on her birth date? Just curious me

There are transcriptions here, may be worth scrolling through?

Just to note that her age is given as 61 in the death index, 1914. I know that ages on death entries are notoriously erroneous and Ive not seen the entry to see who was the informant.
Were any children born 1855(Jane?) ?
Is there a chance birth dates have been included for other children ?
If you don't have that already , it would be worthwhile downloading it just for the extra information.Quote1855 register entrieshttps://www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk/guides/statutory-register-births#1855%20register%20entries
In 1855, the first year of statutory civil registration, the following additional information was recorded:
Other children and whether they were living or deceased
Ages of both parents
Birthplaces of both parents
Parents’ usual residence
Baptismal name (if different).

I have sent Jim a PM with information.
Ancestry have these details on her death and burial:
Death Date: 4 Mar 1914
Death Place: Glenburnie
Burial Date: 7 Mar 1914
Burial Place: Glenluce, Wigtownshire, Scotland
Grave Number: 358
Interment Number: 21
I have both MI booklets for Glenluce and there is nothing in there with her name, i also took photos of every stone in the kirkyard about 10 years ago and i thin I've through them all but nothing. I wonder if there s a map of the plots somewhere that might help.
