It also listed her Parents names as Peter Casey and Mary Arbuckle, as your contributers deduced.

Excellent! That seems to nail it all quite well.
Never trust anything you find online (especially submitted trees and transcriptions on Ancestry, MyHeritage, FindMyPast and other commercial web sites) unless it's an image of an original document - and even then be wary because errors can and do occur.

Dumbarton's post re the death of Margaret proves that her last name was Casey and not Buchanan which is where the discrepancy started

It seems that her name would indeed be Margaret Buchanan Casey.
She mas named for her paretnal grandmother... Margaret Buchanan

I am still of the opinion than son John's birth was registered with mother name showing as  Margaret Buchanan because his mother's name was taken from the 1872  marriage cert showing her name as Buchanan.

I still haven't located a death for Margaret's own mother, Mary Casey MS Arbuckle but given that after being widowed, most of her children are known to be in New Zealand and or Australia, I suspect she may have emigrated with them.

I am  fairly certain that she was the daughter of Andrew Arbuckle and Mary Shaw of Cambuslang

I agree with you. It's been an interesting thread.

Has anyone found a marriage and/or death certificate of John Henderson to see if it confirms these conclusions?

There was no-one listed on the manifest of the Strathnaver" with the name Casey but an Elizabeth Casey married Hollows in Otago NZ and moved to Australia as i recall. Trying to find a reference now.
A john and a Peter Casey also appear in NSW around the time Margaret arrives there. Passed me by when I was not looking for them. I will revert and see what I can find. cheers. :)

Oh!

Changing the subject very slightly........
Remembering that Peter Casey married Mary Arbuckle.

I am now fairly certain that each of them had a sibling who were also a married couple!

Andrew Arbuckle bc 1829 in Cambuslang was also the son of Andrew Arbuckle and Mary Shaw
Peter Casey had a sister named Janet Casey bc 1832.
( I posted the 1841/1851 census  for the Casey family earlier on this thread)

Andrew Arbuckle and Janet Casey married in 1851
They were in Lanarkshire at 1861 and 1871
Last known child born 1877
Andrew and sons only found in Lanarkshire ( Bothwell/Bellshill area)at 1881 but no wife in household.
Cannot locate a death for Janet Arbuckle MS Casey?
1871: Main Street, Bothwell

Andrew Arbuckle   42 B Cambuslang
Janet Arbuckle   38 B Bridgeton
Andrew Arbuckle   18 B Cambuslang
John Arbuckle   16 b Old Monkland
Charles Arbuckle   11 B Dalziel
Archd Arbuckle   8 B Bothwell
Peter Arbuckle   5 B Bothwell
Geo Arbuckle   3 B Bothwell
William C Arbuckle   1 B Bothwell


1881. Main Street
Andrew Arbuckle   52
Charles Arbuckle   21
Peter Arbuckle   15
Wm Arbuckle   11
Alex Arbuckle   8 B Bothwell
James Arbuckle   4 B Bothwell

Cannot locate after this but, some of their sons are known to have moved to Pennsylvania
