Hi Nick,

I am sending you a PM with my email address so that I can forward to you some images I have just received re  CHISHOLM=CAMERON,  5 July 1855, and also baptisms at St Saviours, for children of William Alexander CHISHOLM from the late 1850s and early 1860s.

I am attaching a snippet from that 5 July 1855 parish register showing the bride’s signature.  It could well read Mary, and it could also just as  well read  Marg, noticing William abbreviated his first name to Wm.

I am very appreciative of several Aussie based RChatters  ‘helpers’ who have sent me PMs and one in particular who found the archived images for me. 

Cheers,  JM

That's great JM.   Thank you!  It is good to know that they had additional children.  Perhaps I will be able to track them to some degree.  Looking forward to seeing what your contacts found.
