There is a Mary McKie, b. Anwoth, aged 35, living in Auchinleck, Ayrshire. However, she is married to a John McKie so this might not be her M.S.

Could it be her?

I'll give the full info if you think it might be - quite a few children!

Cronberry Rly Crosing Cottages, Auchinleck
577/2 ED 5 P 6

Sadly, the Ayrshire Mary isn't yours either  :(  Her M.S. was Hyslop and she and John m. Kelton in 1887.


I see your Mary Ann with her parents in Anwoth on the 1871. What is the last census that you have her on?  have you found a marriage?

Hi ev

Her parent's were James and Mary in 1871 - living Anwoth. James was 40 and Mary, 34. James a farm labourer b. Sorbie, Wigtownshire.

I started looking for a marriage for Mary Ann  but nothing coming  up that looks promising as yet.

I've just looked at the 1881 that you referred to ev,  The names, ages, etc, are so similar to the 1891 in Kirkcudbright that I think that she did indeed change her name.  I'll have a look t the image.

Triumph for that site  ::) ::) ::)

The 1891 image has her written as Maryann!  I'll amend  the entry
