Was the child on the DC you have, born in Dumfries?

Annie

The censuses all say Kirkpatrick Flemming. No birth information on the death certificate

It does look like Madax or a variation on that .

I,m sticking with Madax too.

The letter at the end of the name is to me at least, clearly an x.
It is in the script form of 2 small c's back to back.

I should have added after my question (on censuses) as there were no baptisms to say where he was born  :)

Do you know how many children there were & whether any remained in Scotland to get a better idea of Marys' m/s from deaths of other children?

Annie

Add...There are no deaths anywhere in Scotland (recorded) on SP with surname mad*** pre 1855 (which would fit Mary)

Only 1 female who with a name of coincidence with Marys' daughter (mother maybe), age would fit but no way of knowing although the surname isn't common?

MADDEX AGNES
FURNER / FIMOTHY FURNER 72 (b c 1760)
02/10/1832
692/2 340 131 Leith (Edinburgh)

I would think this has been transcribed wrongly & should be Timothy & Turner?
South Uist, Inverness-shire, Scotland:- Bowie, Campbell, Cumming, Currie

Ireland:- Cullen, Flannigan (Derry), Donahoe/Donaghue (variants) (Cork), McCrate (Tipperary), Mellon, Tol(l)and (Donegal & Tyrone)

Newcastle-on-Tyne/Durham (Northumberland):- Harrison, Jude, Kemp, Lunn, Mellon, Robson, Stirling

Kettering, Northampton:- MacKinnon

Canada:- Callaghan, Cumming, MacPhee

I'm having trouble tracing anything on the other children. From Agnes' prison records she says she has a brother william and sisters , Elspeth , Margaret and Jane  or that might be Margaret Jane. all living in Dumfriesshire in 1847 , though I know Elspeth was married and living in Peebleshire then.

It is possible that their marriages could have been Irregular marriages in Gretna Green.

Have you chased up the others on the 1841, sheila?  I had a quick look earlier but couldn't find the Stewart and the others have common names  :-\
