Hi Lorna and Monica

thanks so much for the time and effort you have taken in looking this information up for me.

Lorna

I think that it is 2 families and that the 2nd one may be likely, mainly because of Urquart and I have also found a family group record on familysearch the matches this family.

Monica

The first family also looks possible because of the birth date.

I'll have to keep looking to try and work out which family it may be. Any suggestions on what else I can do?

Thanks again for you help.
