A marriage between a John Manson and an Ellen Leith in 1906 Wick ref 043/ 80

I think Ellen died in Inverness in Inverness in 1965, aged 85. Showing as Helen Leith/Manson ref 098/A 450

If you search on SP for deaths of MANSON with mother's maiden name of LEITH, you will see deaths  for 5 women between 1980 - 2004, potentially daughters to John and Ellen..tbc.
