Hi Elaine and Susan

Just one thing on Susan's 1861 census entry. In Scotland, Daniel and Donald are just one of the many sets of names that are interchangeable:

There seems to have been at least two more children born to Donald Cameron and Elizabeth Adam: A son John born in 1855 in Greenock and a son Robert born in 1861 Anderston, Glasgow.

From Robert's birth entry, parents Donald, a rope spinner journeyman, and Elizabeth Adam married in Alloa on 18 Aug 1837.

There is also only one death entry showing on SP for an Eli* Adam/Cameron with a birth year of 1815 +/- 10yrs:

1883   CAMERON   ELIZABETH       ADAM   F   60   TRADESTON   GLASGOW CITY/LANARK   644/13 0481

Regards.
