Hunter/McClean info DO NOT REPLY TO THIS ONE
« on: Friday 11 November 22 22:11 GMT (UK) »
Hi guys

I need some help as i am confused, and my family don't talk much.

My mum is Margaret Hunter b c1948 Bathgate and her parents are Murdoch Munro b c1873 Ross and Cromarty and Margaret McClean b c1875 don't know place of birth but they married in Hutchesontown. So if mother is McClean how come my mum a Hunter struggling to find information.

I am trying to find connection and any siblings.

And before any of u wonderful people ask I have been looking on all sites and i cant find any information.

Ray

You already have a thread on this couple here.  Have asked moderator to merge to prevent duplication of info

It  is never a good idea to start a new thread asking the same questions as an existing thread. It adds to confusion, encourages duplication of effort, and annoys people who have tried to help with the original thread.

My mum is Margaret Hunter b c1948 Bathgate and her parents are Murdoch Munro b c1873 Ross and Cromarty and Margaret McClean b c1875
This is impossible. If Margaret McClean was born in 1875 she would have been 73 in 1948, which is far too old to have a child.

Also there is no point flapping around trying to get information from other web sites instead of from Scotland's People, which is the only source of all the original documents.


Never trust anything you find online (especially submitted trees and transcriptions on Ancestry, MyHeritage, FindMyPast and other commercial web sites) unless it's an image of an original document - and even then be wary because errors can and do occur.
