John Carr married the daughter Magdalene Clark 15 Dec 1865 in Dairsie,Fife,Scotland she would have been 26 years old.

Magdalen Carr possibly living in Forfarshire (Angus) in 1891 aged 50 in a district called St Mary (Dundee?) - could have possibly died aged 82 in 1924 in St Andrews Dundee.

Extra evidence her father?
Andrew Clark in Forfarshire (Angus) in 1891 born 1811 aged 80 and living in a district called St Mary (Dundee?) Perhaps died in 1898 in Cupar, Fife aged 86. Son in law Samuel Miller? Father Andrew Clark Ploughman. Andrew Clark born 04 May 1809 in Leuchars son of Andrew Clark and Mary Simpson.

Magdalen Carr born Newport
Elizabeth Carr dau born Longforgan born 1878
David Carr son Perthshire Glencluse born 1882
Andrew Carr son of Doves Loan, Ceres, Fife

Thankyou Ev, that is interesting married in Leuchars.

Looks like when Magdalene Clark died in 1887 her husband Andrew Clark was still alive. So maybe my next step is looking in the 1891 census.

ooh Magadalene Hutton born February 1807 daughter of George Hutton and Betty Laing at St Andrews and St Leonards in Fife. (1810 is a bit out)

Think I just found a criminal case involving David Clark, from Dairsie in 1874 in the Perth Circut Court, were he recieved 15 years penal servitude. Yikes.....

Wonder if I could get records from the Scottish Archives if he was a prisoner? Maybe a photograph? hmm

Highly probable  it is Glencarse, Perth and Kinross - Annie, I've never had Scottish ancestors to research in that county before :)
