Were any children born 1855(Jane?) ?
Is there a chance birth dates have been included for other children ?

If you don't have that already , it would be worthwhile downloading it just for the extra information.

1855 register entries
In 1855, the first year of statutory civil registration, the following additional information was recorded:
Other children and whether they were living or deceased
Ages of both parents
Birthplaces of both parents
Parents’ usual residence
Baptismal name (if different).

Just to note that her age is given as 61 in the death index, 1914. I know that ages on death entries are notoriously erroneous and Ive not seen the entry to see who was the informant.

Informant was here husband, i have a copy of the death certificate. He died in 1927.

Did you manage to find some confirmation on her birth date? Just curious me

I did thanks to Neale, the family bible photo gave me the date and the Old Luce interments gave me the plot number, but i think i need a map of the plots.

Great news 

The plot number  (lair) would probably be held by Dumfries and Galloway Council. I phoned them and got the info for mine in KKD.  There are some booklets that give plans and plot numbers. Unfortunately, I only have ones for  MIs for KKD.
