Hi Edward,

I assume Margaret is the daughter of Sween & Isabella? If so she most likely married Alexander Binning in Bathurst in 1860. If you buy the marriage certificate it should provide a large amount of information.

Do you think we should ask a modorator to combine the 2 threads Edward Fraser has posted. There is another about Donald Macdonald. Margaret's brother.

I think we may double up on research if we look for these 2 people seperately?
