Welcome to RootsChat.

I'm afraid that alisontoon has not been active on RootsChat for quite a while and may not receive notification of your reply.

These people are no relation to me, I'm afraid so I don't have any additional information to share.  It is generally recommended that you work backwards from the present to the past to ensure that you make the correct connections.  Otherwise you risk taking the wrong path.

Frances died of bronchitis 16 January 1917 at 149 Graeme Street Glasgow.  Her daughter Annie gave her own address as 14 Errol Street.

The informant was her daughter Annie, now married to Reid.

John and Frances had a son named Niven John McCormick in 1877, but he died in 1879.

I've just checked a death registration for Frances McCormick who was the widow of John Beggs McCormick.

The parents' names are completely different:

Niven Mansfield (soldier) and Frances Mansfield mms Galloway

How old was Frances when she married, please?

Her father was a Corporal in the 47th Foot.  The regiment spent time in Canada in the 1860s.
