Title: Mary Ferrol (Armstrong) Old Luce Wigtownshire
Post by: Seoni on Sunday 02 August 20 10:25 BST (UK)
I am looking for any information on Mary Armstrong who married Peter Ferrol 24 May 1869 at Stoneykirk. The last I know about her is in 1901 when she was with Peter and her family at Dunragit Old Luce. I cannot find her death anywhere under the name Ferrol. I tried every combination and used wild cards on Scotlands People all to no avail. If I am correct her husband Peter remarried in 1903 to a Maggie Smith. He was a widower on the marriage cert. So using that info she must have died between 1901 and 1903. Even if I have the info on Peter wrong I still cannot find her death at any time. I have hit the proverbial brick wall. Can anyone help please.  ???

Have you looked at this death in Scotlands People 1903 Kilmun ?
Mary Ferrol other name Wilson age 51 Years
I noticed on the 1881 census her mother is there name Agnes Wilson
1861 Census a Mary Armstrong is with a Aunt and Uncle family name Wilson
1871 Census looks like her daughter Grace is with the same family

Might be worth looking at

There is also a marriage for a Agnes Cochrane 13 July 1875 Portpatrick Wigtown
Spouse Alexander Wilson

I don't think Agnes Cochrane was married to David Armstong

On the 1851 Census there is a Agnes transcribed as Coachran on freeCen with a
John and Charlotte Wilson in Stoneykirk Wigtown
Agnes Coachran age 28 unmarried born Kirkmaiden Wigtown  sister in law
Mary Coachran age 1 born Stoneykirk Wigtown niece
