Lockhart family of Arran, Ayrshire Scotland

[Little Nell]

Well, either Mary Frances Lockhart is not the Mary Frame Lockhart that we have found or she is a different person altogether - and we haven't found her yet.

Since she is the apparent link to earlier generation, finding her birth is rather important.

John Lockhart 32 marries Margaret Frame Peat 23. John is a farmer. Margaret is a teacher. Both signed.

Agreed. I think I will leave this for now until the OP returns to answer some of our questions and hopefully clarify things.

I fear you have fallen victim to the reorganisations of local government in 1975 and later.

Until 1975, and therefore for historical research purposes, neither 'Ayrshire and Arran' nor 'North Ayrshire' existed as local government entities. Nor did 'Argyll and Bute'.

The Isle of Arran is part of the historic county of Bute, so if you are looking for historical records of anyone in Arran, concentrate on Bute and forget about Ayrshire, as it will only serve to confuse.

No part of either Ayrshire or Bute is or ever was in Lanarkshire.

"Mary Frances married 3 times"

Can you confirm any parent details from either of the 3 please as it's the only way forward?
