Jean THOM - who are her parents?

[margaret103]

Hi,

I have a Jean THOM who was married to James MITCHELL in 1792 at Glasgow.

I am trying to find who her parents were and when and where she was born; at the moment there are two contenders, the first one is William THOM and mother Janet AULD and was born 1766 at New Monkland. This would make her 26 when she got married.  The second choice is her father being John THOM, mother unknown and born 1777 at Cambuslang. That would make her 15 when she got married.

She and James MITCHELL had 6 children; 1). Janet, born 1794 Glasgow. 2). Hugh, born 1796 Old Monkland. 3). John, born 1799 Olds Monkland. 4). Walter born 1804 New Monkland. 5). James born 1806 Old Monkland. 6). Mary born 1811, Old Monkland.

Does this person ring a bell with anyone? She is my 4 X Great Grandmother, and I would really like to know more about her.

Regards,

Margaret

Her baptism record may not have survived so there may be many contenders to be her parents
