Hi Shari,

Would you have any idea when Charlotte was born?

There is a submitted birth entry - just 1837 - on the FamilySearch site.

Since this is before civil registration began in 1855 in Scotland, the parish register may only show the baptism date.  You could check the ScotlandsPeople site to see if there is a more precise date given in their indexes.  No images are available but transcriptions are.

Hi Nell,
      Thank you for your help, I did have 1837 but was hoping for something more to go on, do you know if she had any siblings?
Kind Regards
Shari

No idea - all I did was look at the IGI.  You should be able to find out of anyone has submitted that information by doing a parent search on the FamilySearch site.  Submitted information rather than extracted records should always be treated with greater caution and verified before taking it as true.
