It is for sure. Hard to keep on the straight and narrow...that is difficult/challenging enough.

Just leaving this for now, a possibility for Catherine born c. 1841. She is showing at home in 1851. Can't easily see her so far for 1861.

There is a marriage on 12 July 1869 in Rathen between a Peter Whyte and a Catherine Buchan.

They have children from FS up to 1875 index:

1871 Peter
1872 Peter
1874 Robert Buchan

There looks to be a death in Fraserburgh in 1880 for a Catherine Buchan/White, aged 38.

Peter and Catherine in 1871:

Peter Whyte 23 Baker (employing 1 Man & 2 Boys) b. Rathen
Catherine Whyte 29 b. Rathen
Peter Whyte 2 Months

Address: 51 Back Street, Fraserburgh

Peter in 1881:

Peter Whyte 34 Baker (Emp. 2 Men & 2 Boys) b. Rathen
Peter Whyte 8
Thos P Whyte 4
Cath B Whyte 3
John Paul 16
Jas Cruickshank    14
Christina Duthie 24 Servant b. Rathen
Mary Carle 17

Address: 66 High Street Fraserburgh

With communites like these with so many similar names, never confident with my guesses here!

From SP, there is this death entry on the index:

Anne BUCHAN aged 24 died in Rathen in 1863. Ref 235/ 28. Mother's Maiden Name DUTHIE
