Hi James
I just wrote you this really long message and then at the end of it i lost it. Grrr.
anyway now very briefly your Prudence did not lose her parents in 1842 her Aunty prudence did- sister to james armstrong (gameskeeper) it was Catherine and Thomas Armstrong their parents who died before 1842.
And there must of been alot of armstrong children in between our margaret and prudence, however we are the only two siblings i know about.
also james armstrongs wife jane may have been a Johnstone and married in 1827, when I order a death cert of Margrets (she died in Australia) I will surly let you know, though alot of the time the family members (here in Australia) did not know their wife or mothers maiden name. Probably because of little contact back home and by old age they were really struggling with drinking problems.
Anyway james my first draft was clearer, but lost so take care and talk soon Sharon
