We may be getting old but you seem to understand my predicament. I have Andrew Park's marriage and death certificate, both events occurring in Australia. These documents indicate his mother was Margaret McKenzie. The only relevant information from the OPR from the relevant period is the marriage of Fraser Park to Elspet King. I have not been able to link a Margaret McKenzie to the Park family and conclude that as Andrew was orphaned in 1832 and emigrated to Australia in 1854 when he was 24, he may not have known who his mother was. I have no information to indicate there were 2 marriages.
