Jessie Mckay's birth
« on: Wednesday 20 September 23 14:08 BST (UK) »
I'm looking for the Birth around 1834 of Jessie McKenzie nee McKay
Jessie married a widower in 22.11.1864 Hugh McKenzie at Kildonan Hugh died 11.2.1882
they had 3 daughters Alexandrina 1865 to 1875 ,Catherine Harriett Hay Clark 1868 and Johan Isabella Oliver 1871
I have Jessie's death certificate from Scotland people 1.7.1915 states her age  80 year old
She is the daughter of Robert McKay and Isabella Oliver  I have nothing else on this couple
Can anyone help me please

Have you found her in a census? If so, where was she born?

Have you looked for her as Janet?
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.

Yes I looked in 1881 census under Hugh's name as he was still alive and died 1882
On Hugh's death she is Jessie and her marriage but I will have another look
Thanks for this

Jannet MacKay bapt 4 Oct 1831 Farr
Parents John MacKay and Isobel Oliver

Would suggest father’s name on death is recorded incorrectly. Who was informant?
What is it on the marriage cert?
