I agree 1851 shows the Forbes family @ Croy and daughter Bell ROSS Forbes age 10 no sign of mother but a son Roderick.

Can't however find Janet Gollan/Golan in 1851 

[fifer1947]

A baptism at Urquhart for Janet Gollan 2 Nov 1809 to Donald Gollan and Helen McKay.

Yes that's definitely her

I think yours might well be the 42 year old servant in Rosemarkie:

Flowerburn
HOusehold of Mary Mcbean, wid, 75, jt farmer (with son David) of 100 acres -50 acres pasture 8 labourers


Janet Gollan, servant, unm, 42, dairy maid, b. Ferintosh!

I note that the servants before and after are b. Kilearnan so maybe a mix up 

PS - I know someone from Ferintosh

[fifer1947]

Janet Gollan died 21 April 1892, of Old Age, Debility.  Aged 84. Muckernich, Killearnan
Pauper former a general servant, single
Parents - Donald Gollan, crofter and Helen Gollan, m.s. Mackay, both deceased
Informant - Annie Gollan, sister, present

Yes that adds up, correct parents and sister thanks for that brevitas

No that will be correct Janet was the only child born in Urquhart and Logie Wester (like her mum that's Ferintosh)

Is that sorted now?

Have a good New Year
