janet born 1850
george born 31/10/1851
henrietta born 4/12/1853
john born 11/11/1855

all born avoch

christina born 1861 victoria aus
eliza born 1863 victoria aus

isabella died 11/4/1914
janet died 22/10/1936
george died 6/4/1927
henrietta died 1/12/1924
john died 20/2/1936
christina died 1861

research says that isabella corner was the daughter of john corner and isabella aird, and she was born 17/6/1824.

isabella aird married john corner 8/6/1815 and was the daughter of james aird and christian sutherland. isabella aird/corner died 10/3/1846

hi pal, now i see your link between the munro's and the mckeddie's.

isabella munro married robert smail on the 26/6/1863, robert was the son of james smail and margaret walker while isabella was the daughter of alexander munro and christian mckeddie.

isabella munro was born 11/5/1840 avoch.

james smail and margaret walker married 1/4/1831 in jedburgh

alexander munro and christian mckeddie married 25/12/1835 in avoch

christian mckeddie was born 23/2/1814 and was the daughter of george mckeddie and janet bain.

janet bain and george where married rosemarkie on the 3/4/1813.

another line you may want to pursue is that of alexander munro who was the vbrother of your isabella, he was born 21/9/1836 or the sister of christian who was janet mckeddie born 1819 avoch

happy hunting

Joe
