Bit of a puzzle
« on: Monday 23 May 05 21:57 BST (UK) »
I am looking for details of Margaret HARROWER.
She married David CHLAMERS 1812 Clackmannan and had 5 children.
She was widowed sometime between 1827 and 1836 when she remarried a John HUNTER,
She is showing on 1851 census with her daughter and family in Kinross.
Age given then as 62 which places year of birth 1789. Place of birth Clackmannan. She remarried in Clackmannan also.

I have found many possible matches for her parents. The trouble is proving it!

I thought the best way would be search the scotlands people website for death records, as women are recorded under both married and maiden names, So i tried under HARROWER, CHALMERS & HUNTER. Nothing matched  at all.
I have also checked the Clackmannan death record index for her in case she was visiting her daughter in 1851 but zilch!

Can anyone help at all please!!!
Any suggestions welcome.
Many thanks
Amanda
